About this update from The Vita Coco Company, Inc.

Year Two of the Partnership Celebrates New Mini-Pitches at Tom C. Gooch Elementary School and Trevista at Horace Mann, Increasing Access to Play for Underserved CommunitiesNEW YORK, June 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vita Coco®, America’s leading coconut water brand, and the U.S. Soccer Foundation are continuing their partnership for a second year, expanding access to youth sports through the construction and launch of two new mini-pitches at Tom C. Gooch Elementary School in Dallas, Texas, and Trevista at Horace Mann in Denver, Colorado. The creation of new mini-pitches is a key part of the U.S. Soccer Foundation’s mission to ensure every child has access to safe places to play, regardless of zip code. These hard-court surfaces serve as hubs for youth development, helping kids build confidence, develop teamwork and leadership skills, and form healthy habits both on and off the field. Vita Coco is committed to fueling play with products that are better for the people and planet, and continues to support programs that help communities thrive. With 3.5x the electrolytes vs. the leading sports drink*, Vita Coco helps fuel movement on and off the field. “Mini-pitches are more than places to play,” said Ed Foster-Simeon, President & CEO, U.S. Soccer Foundation. “They are catalysts for opportunity. When young people have a safe space to show up, try new things, and feel part of a community, it expands what they believe is possible for themselves. We are grateful to continue our work with Vita Coco to bring these opportunities to more kids and to ensure that every child, no matter their zip code, has access to the benefits and joy that come from the game.” In the second year of the partnership, Vita Coco is supporting the construction and launch of both mini-pitches, building on its shared commitment with the U.S. Soccer Foundation to create more opportunities for kids to play, grow, and thrive through soccer. “At Vita Coco, our desire to do better goes beyond our product, and we believe that every kid deserves the chance to play safely in their own backyard,” said Vita Coco co-founder and executive chairman, Mike Kirban. “I’m proud of our continued partnership with the U.S. Soccer Foundation and being able to co-create spaces where young people can build confidence, stay active, and experience the joy that comes from simply having a great place to play.” Tog...
