VEGAS (October 2, 2025) – The Foley Entertainment Group announced today, October 2, the donation of 850 customized uniforms to the Mayor’s Fund for Las Vegas LIFE featuring the logos of the Premier League’s AFC Bournemouth and the NHL’s Vegas Golden Knights. The uniforms will go to Las Vegas youth playing in the Vegas Bourne Youth Soccer League – a nod to the owner of both franchises, Bill Foley.
The Vegas Bourne Youth Soccer League held its inaugural season under its new name in the Spring of 2025. The league helped offer the opportunity for more than 750 kids across the Valley to play soccer and will look to do the same this season.
“Las Vegas has quickly become an extension of Bournemouth, and the Vegas Bourne Soccer League has been an incredible opportunity for local youth sports,” said Jim Frevola, President of Business Operations at AFC Bournemouth. “We had great success this past spring with this initiative, and we are excited to see more kids playing soccer while wearing the Cherries’ colors in Vegas.”
The uniforms include a reversible jersey in black and red, plus shorts and socks. The league will officially kick off this Saturday, October 4, and continue through November 22.
Additional AFC Bournemouth outreach in Las Vegas has included an annual summer youth soccer camp and watch parties hosted at MacKenzie River Pizza, Grill & Pub at City National Arena.
ABOUT AFC BOURNEMOUTH

Known as "The Cherries," the club's ascent began in 2009, achieving three promotions in six seasons and culminating in their Premier League debut in 2015.
Having now established the start of an exciting new chapter in this long and storied history following Bill Foley’s 2022 takeover, AFC Bournemouth has seen significant investment committed towards sustaining its Premier League status and developing further each season.
The construction of a state-of-the-art training facility alongside the arrival of promising young talent from top clubs around Europe have provided the club with a fantastic platform from which to build its on-field expectations.
