OneAZ Credit Union and national premier soccer club FC Arizona are launching an exciting new partnership aimed at inspiring dreams throughout communities across Arizona. The collaboration officially “kicked off” on March 28, 2024 at the second annual FCAZ Fest & Senior Night.
The strategic partnership combines both the resources and knowledge of OneAZ and FC Arizona, aligning their shared commitment to investing in Arizona, empowering the community and achieving excellence.
“The partnership between OneAZ and FC Arizona is about so much more than sports. It’s about teamwork, inspiring leadership, and empowering confidence in players and fans to dig deep and reach their highest potential. We’re proud to play a part in that powerful purpose through this partnership,” said Liza Buchanan, SVP Marketing Operations at OneAZ.
Over the next two years, OneAZ will provide financial support for the team’s initiatives and community programs, including their youth, adult and semi-pro leagues. The robust partnership includes various activations that will bolster FC Arizona’s capacity and ability to expand events and tournaments while also enhancing OneAZ’s presence and accessibility within the community.
“We are extremely excited to be welcomed into the OneAZ Credit Union family. OneAZ has a rich history in Arizona meeting and serving our community for over 70 years. Their dedication to our state inspires us, and we eagerly anticipate learning from and collaborating with them,” said Christiam Carrillo, FC Arizona.
FC Arizona has semi-professional men’s teams competing in the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL), the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL), a women’s pro-am team competing in the United Women’s Soccer (UWS) league and a youth soccer program for various age groups. The organization prides itself on being a national premier soccer club, driven by the development of their athletes as people on and off the field.
Based in the southeast area of Phoenix, FC Arizona shares the same community-driven initiative as OneAZ. The highly competitive nature of their organization contributes to their commitment to Arizona’s community, ensuring it is the best it possibly can be.
OneAZ and FC Arizona’s collaboration is an investment into the local sports community and aims to strengthen the club’s endeavors while advocating for community engagement.
