Some of our Marion student-athletes are going to have an amazing experience this summer! We are proud of you, Giants!
🌎 Team Marion USA – International Children’s Games Delegation 🌎
This summer, these incredible young athletes will represent Team Marion USA at the International Children’s Games in Hualien, Taiwan.
Only 17 cities from all of North America will participate in this year’s Games. Marion, Indiana will proudly be the ONLY delegation from the United States represented in Boys Soccer, Girls Soccer, and Boys Basketball.
For these athletes, this is far more than a tournament. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to compete internationally, experience new cultures, build friendships with athletes from around the world, and represent their families, schools, clubs, community, state, and country.
From local gyms and soccer fields in Grant County to the international stage in Taiwan, these athletes are preparing to represent the City of Marion, Grant County, and the United States with pride.
Help support Team Marion USA as we work to complete the final stretch of fundraising and make this unforgettable experience possible for these young athletes. Donate here: https://givetogrant.org/icg/
