Although it was established in America, CALLE originated on the streets of different countries all over the world. Following their obsession, many of the founders traveled to and lived in cultures where soccer is way of life. While playing on the dirt, in the sand, and on the streets, they realized that Americans were missing out. Created in July of 2006, CALLE brought the field to the street with an extraordinarily creative style of game play. For more information on CALLE and other events, visit www.CALLEsoccer.com.
