Ed Shaddai Academy

El Shaddai Academy is a rapidly growing soccer academy established with Big Picture Soccer in 2023, located in southern Belize. Created to give youth a place to belong, grow, and experience positive guidance through soccer, it has quickly become one of the fastest-growing and most impactful programs in the BPS network. Many youth in the area face economic hardship, limited opportunities, and exposure to gang or drug-related influences. The program emphasizes respect, discipline, teamwork, and personal growth while building relationships that extend beyond the field through gatherings outside training.
