The Union held a special event in the TruMark Financial Club, where the team unveiled 15 cleats, designed by children affected by pediatric cancer and created by Troy Cole, also known as Kickasso.

The collaboration between the Union and Kickasso is the first of its kind. Earlier this season, 15 children, who are currently battling pediatric cancer or who have won their fight, came out to a Union training session and met with 15 first team players. Paired up with a player, the children sat down and designed cleats on a sheet of paper.

Those cleats were then sent to Kickasso, who brought the cleats to life.
