Episode 70: Stacey Ashmore - Director of Impact - Youth Sports Program

In this week’s episode, Phil Clark welcomes back Stacey Ashmore to give an exciting update on the Impact Youth Sports Program. Impact is a vital initiative helping local kids stay active, build confidence, and form lasting connections through soccer, basketball, and now, flag football!

Stacey shares the current focus on soccer, where up to 30 kids train weekly with long-time coach Ariana from CESA. Looking ahead, Impact is launching a flag football program for 3rd through 6th graders, just in time for the NFL’s growing emphasis on the sport for young girls. Practices will be held Monday through Thursday evenings at Upstate Circle of Friends.

Stacey also reflects on success stories of youth progressing to middle and high school sports, as well as the deeper impact the program has made—like helping families in need with meals after practice and giving kids a safe, positive outlet.

You’ll also hear:

• Why volunteers and sponsors are essential to growing the program

• How to get involved as a parent, coach, or supporter

• Stacey’s heartfelt hope that Impact continues to serve the community for decades to come
