With the 10th anniversary under its belt, the Uniroyal Soccer Program is continuing to support local soccer across the nation.
As of yesterday children at West Side Family YMCA can receive certificates that can be redeemed for a free soccer ball at C & D Tire, while supplies last.  
After the 30-day program period, West Side Family YMCA will receive $2 for every Uniroyal tire sold to the general public on behalf of Uniroyal Tire and C & D Tire.
Since the program's inception in 2000, the Uniroyal Soccer Program has provided nearly $13 million in funds and equipment in excess of one million soccer balls, to more than 3,000 youth soccer programs across the U.S. and
Canada.
As a continuation of the 10th anniversary, Uniroyal Tire will be giving away a soccer ball every day in 2010.  For more information, go to the website at www.UniroyalTires.com.
"Giving back to our local community in such a unique way is phenomenal," said Dennis Dossett of C & D Tire. "We look forward to connecting with players and parents from West Side Family YMCA when they come in for their free soccer ball."
"We are thankful we can provide such a distinct program for our dealers to be able to get involved in their communities," said Ashley Ramos, Uniroyal
Tire communications manager. "Soccer leagues depend on donations from partners like C & D Tire and we are proud to facilitate that partnership."
