PAYSA will also have some used cleats and shin guards available for those looking for equipment. This is a great opportunity to either donate your cleats/shin guards and/or find something that fits your player(s). Also, if you are cleaning out your soccer gear and simply wish to donate to our sports recycle program, you can drop off cleats and shin guards to 15 Alba St. (front porch).

We are also accepting travel uniforms (shorts, jerseys, and/or socks) that are clean and in good condition.Please note: We are not collecting rec jerseys, shorts or socks. Any questions about our equipment recycle program feel free to contact Scott Segal @ 838-8632.
