Have you ever wanted to break a world record but didn’t know where to start (or how to jump on a pogo stick for 23 miles)? Now you can be a part of history with the U.S. Soccer Foundation as we attempt to build the longest string of shoes.
In an effort to collect new and gently used equipment for soccer players in need, the Foundation is planning to break the World Record for the Longest Chain of Shoes at the 2009 NSCAA Convention held in St. Louis, MO, on January 14–18. With the current record at 10,500, we need your help!
Ways to help:
-Donate your shoes and ship them to Eurosport by December 1, 2008.
Shipping Information:

- Donate $10 to buy a pair of shoes for a child in need. Visit ussoccerfoundation.org/give to make your donation.
