“Just as Marriott continues to grow around the world, soccer’s popularity in the U.S. has risen tremendously in the past few years,” said Joanna Todd, vice president of segment strategy for Marriott International. “Anywhere that the U.S. Soccer National Teams and their fans travel, Marriott will be there to ensure that they have the best quality stays that keep them on top of their game.”

Founded in 1913, U.S. Soccer has helped chart the course for soccer in the USA for almost a century as the governing body of the sport. In this time, the Federation’s mission statement has been clear and simple: to make soccer, in all its forms, a preeminent sport in the United States and to continue the development of soccer at all recreational and competitive levels. To that end, the sport’s growth in the past two decades has been nothing short of remarkable as U.S. Soccer’s National Teams have continually succeeded on the world stage while also growing the game here in the United States with the support of its members.
