Why Brand Protection Matters
:

The U.S. Soccer Federation holds its brand in the highest regard, as it represents the passion and dedication of millions of players, fans, coaches and referees nationwide. Protecting this legacy for future generations requires safeguarding U.S. Soccer’s trademarks, logos, and other intellectual property.

A strong brand is more than just a logo; it is a symbol of everything we stand for: sportsmanship, unity, and excellence. Protecting our brand protects the values it embodies. When someone exploits U.S. Soccer’s intellectual property (IP), it can:

Harm our reputation: Counterfeit merchandise and unauthorized logo use can damage public trust and the integrity of the game.

Mislead consumers: Fake products may be inferior and unsafe, tarnishing the U.S. Soccer name and experience.

Cost us valuable resources: Unauthorized use deprives U.S. Soccer of revenue needed to develop the sport and fuel reinvestment into the soccer ecosystem at all levels.
