Dear City Council Members,
On behalf of the San Pablo United Youth Soccer Club (SPUYSC), and in my capacity as President, I respectfully submit this formal request for a waiver of fees for the use of Rumrill Fields 1, 2, and 3 from January 3 to June 30, 2026, to support our Spring Season.
SPUYSC is a volunteer-driven, non-profit organization committed to serving the youth and families of our community. We operate independently, without subsidies from other organizations, and strive to provide a safe, inclusive environment where young people can develop both athletically and personally. Our mission is to ensure that no child is excluded due to socioeconomic barriers; we are dedicated to maintaining affordable programs accessible to every child in our community.
Over the years, the City of San Pablo’s generous support has been instrumental in helping us achieve significant milestones. With your assistance, we have been able to sponsor 15–20 players each season— many from lower-income families— ensuring they remain active and engaged in positive activities.
Additionally, your support has enabled us to send 2–3 teams each season to tournaments outside our community, providing life-changing experiences for our players. Currently, eight of our teams compete at the State Premier Cup level, a testament to the opportunities your partnership has made possible.
We are deeply grateful for the City’s ongoing commitment, which allows us to continue supporting our volunteer coaches and serving the families of San Pablo.
It is important to note that recent actions by ICE have had a profound effect on our community, particularly impacting on the mental well-being of our youth. In these challenging times, it is vital that we provide stability, support, and a sense of belonging through positive outlets such as youth sports. By granting this fee waiver, the city will help ensure that our young people have continued access to a safe and supportive environment during a period of heightened uncertainty.
Thank you for your consideration and for your unwavering support of our mission.
Sincerely,
Rafael Torres
President,
