The 2011 Urban Soccer Symposium is right around the corner! The Symposium, presented by U.S. Soccer Foundation and the Urban Soccer Collaborative, is the only national event that provides resources, trainings, information, and networking opportunities specifically designed for soccer programs in under-resourced communities.

Held in Washington, D.C. at the Georgetown University Hotel, Demosphere will attend the event and will sponsor the opening reception for attendees.

We are proud to announce a new Demosphere® logo! After months of planning and design, the new logo helps kick off our third decade in operation.

The logo keeps the primary color scheme of green and blue intact and highlights Demosphere's expertise with all types of youth sports organizations. "Dedicated to Sport", the company tagline, is also featured prominently.

The big story leading up to FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar is the heat. With the event taking place in July, average temperatures hover over 100 degrees and highs have been recorded as high as 120 degrees, putting both athletes and spectators at risk.

Qatar has previously promised to air condition each stadium and has taken this a step further today by announcing their intent to place artificial clouds above stadiums to provide shade for games and potentially training sessions, too.
