We aim to provide community inclusivity.
Also, la Bombonera houses soccer trainers and referees who will serve as mentors and as a linkage to the community to reach their highest potential. We aim to provide communal inclusivity, promote the healthy development of individuals and families, encourage service and volunteerism.
La Bombonera founders Ricardo Guerra and Adrian Garcia Del Real have established a strong relationship with the community through fundraising events for families impacted by disparities and providing direct services in the Ashland Community for youth and families. For the past years, La Bombonera has collaborated behind the scenes with specific professional clubs and companies, such as the San Jose Earthquakes. La Bombonera will continue to have a strong presence in the East Bay communities throughout 2023 through community events and other activities. Community engagement in this area is part of La Bombonera’s focus on growing the sport at the grassroots level ahead of 2024 and the FIFA World Cup in 2026
