Some “Behind the Scenes” for you…
The young player is 10-year-old Makena Cook. She plays for Slammers in SoCal. You’re in for a treat when you give her & her mom an IG follow here. The ad features tons of famous and professional soccer stars, and also some of the best female referees in the nation. CalSouth & US Soccer referees Karen Callado and Salma Perez were also part the magic.
Karen said they filmed her sections in April in Los Angeles. She said, “…so proud to be part of this huge commercial, it makes me keeping dream!” Karen was an AR (assistant/sideline referee) and Salma was the Center Ref.
Some shots were filmed at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, CA:
