Thank you to Cultivate US and the Columbus Chamber of Commerce for supporting the 7th Annual Columbus Nations Cup!

Cultivate US, an initiative by the Columbus Chamber of Commerce, proudly supports the Columbus Nations Cup because it reminds us that while we come from many places, we all live in Columbus.

Soccer is more than a game – it’s a global language that crosses borders and connects hearts. All you need is a ball and people ready to play.

This tournament celebrates the rich diversity of our community and the power of soccer to bring us together—bringing together neighbors, friends, and even former rivals—all for the love of the game.

Whether you’re playing or cheering, come be part of an event that unites cultures, builds friendships, and strengthens our city.

As we wrap up a challenging but meaningful school and soccer year, we look ahead to Columbus Nations Cup — F3’s annual event on July 12th that captures everything we stand for.

From powerful moments on and off the field to impactful community work throughout 2025, this year’s journey has been about connection, resilience, and inclusivity. Through the beautiful game, we continue to work to create a space for every background - across financial, cultural, religious, and ethnic lines - to feel seen, valued, and celebrated.

Now, we come together at Nations Cup to reflect, represent, and recognize how far we’ve come. First, we connect through soccer - then, we build beyond it
