The exciting kit includes a poster version of the rallying ‘Good Luck’ message, a ‘Go USA’ banner, soccer-themed coloring sheets, bingo cards, and interactive activities featuring designing custom jerseys and coloring iconic player hairstyles.
“At this pivotal time for soccer in this country, Henkel wanted to go big with our rallying-cry to bring everyone together and back our athletes. Mirroring the role our well-loved brands such as Dial, all free clear, Persil, göt2b and Loctite play for fans in their everyday lives, we are a company that lifts and supports our community, and we’re excited to do this for America’s Home Team,” said Phil Schaffer, Corporate Senior Vice President Henkel Consumer Brands, North America.

Scaling new heights in its approach to partnerships, Henkel helped create Stamford history.

Deloitte, the Official Professional Services Provider for U.S. Soccer, will also feature its logo within the building wrap.
