Brand taps Andrew McCutchen and Alex Morgan as youth sports ambassadors
“Youth sports were a huge part of my life and really helped shape who I am today,” Morgan said. “I know how much work goes into chasing your dream and I was so lucky to have the support of my family and community. That is why I am thrilled to be able to support so many young people through Chevy Youth Soccer as they chase their dreams on the field.”
It’s obviously an honor to win an award like this, especially when you look at the list of amazing players who have won it before. This year was a difficult one for our team, but overall we played some great soccer so it’s humbling to be recognized individually. I’m just proud to be in the company of all the great players that were nominated and all of the players that played for the USA this year. I couldn’t have accomplished anything without the support of my teammates and my coaches, and while it was a fun year for me personally, I’m excited not only about my own future, but also the future of this team as I know we have a lot more room to grow and many more goals to achieve.
