Who We Are

More Than a Soccer Program

The Eritrean-American Youth Sport Association of Atlanta (Red Sea) has been in operation since 2018, founded by a group of Eritrean parents committed to creating an independent association β€” free of political and religious affiliation. We provide children with the opportunity to play soccer, develop their skills, and grow as individuals in a welcoming community environment.

Red Sea maintains active relationships with other Eritrean and Eritrean-American soccer associations in the surrounding areas, local leagues, and the Eritrean Sports Federation in North America β€” welcoming all, regardless of political or religious affiliation.

🌟 Our Vision

To provide each player the opportunity to access sports and educational venues that nurture their common heritage, help them improve their skills, and encourage sportsmanship throughout their journey.
