This past Saturday, Spotlight Development Inc. proudly supported the next generation of athletes as part of its sponsorship of Excel Pro Soccer Academy’s U7, U8, U12, and U17 teams.

“At Spotlight, we believe community-building starts early,” said Sherry Larjani. “Supporting programs like Excel Pro is about more than sport—it’s about creating spaces where youth feel empowered, supported, and proud of who they are becoming.”

Excel Pro Soccer Academy continues to be a cornerstone for athletic development and mentorship in the Newmarket region, fostering values of teamwork, inclusion, and perseverance in young athletes. Spotlight Excel Pro Soccer
