The Pelham Family Branch YMCA has received more than $450 in both funds and equipment from Cahaba Tire Pros and Uniroyal Tire. Since 2000, the Uniroyal Soccer Program has donated nearly $14 million in funds and equipment, including over one million soccer balls, to more than 3,000 youth soccer leagues nationwide.

“Being in touch with our community and its soccer organization is such a meaningful experience,” said Floyd Crooks from Cahaba Tire Pros. “Knowing we are having a positive impact on these kids when we are giving out the soccer balls is priceless.”

“After 12 years of dedication, the program continues to grow and support more communities thanks to dealers like Cahaba Tire Pros,” said Ana Martin, Uniroyal Communications Manager. “Over 1,100 participants have connected with their local youth soccer programs across the United States. Bringing value to families is what Uniroyal believes in, and the soccer program enables us to do so in an unmatched way.”

Uniroyal announces the introduction of the new Laredo Cross Country Tour tire. Launched Aug. 1, 2011, this affordable tire is designed specifically for CUVs, SUVs and light trucks. It offers the perfect combination of durability, long-lasting wear, all-season performance and a 60,000-Mile Manufacturers Limited Warranty.
