<\/a><\/a>\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t be where I am today without the many coaches, mentors, teammates and family members who believed in me on this journey,\u201d said Tim Ream, a captain of the USMNT. \u201cI\u2019m proud to be part of New York Life\u2019s \u2018The Assist\u2019 because it honors those relationships and highlights the importance of having a strong support system to help you achieve your dreams.\u201d<\/p>
\n\u201cThe Assist\u201d docuseries includes:<\/p>
- \n
- \nTyler Adams reconnecting with former teammate Bradley Wright-Phillips, who set the standard when Adams first entered a professional locker room as a 15-year-old rookie. That friendship and deep respect is also evident in Adams\u2019 relationship with his brothers, who pushed each other to be better.<\/li>\n
- \nTim Ream\u2019s return to the St. Louis warehouse where coaches Tommy Howe and Kevin Kalish built the fundamentals that still define his game today. Away from the field, Ream credits his wife, whose perspective and support have helped him sustain one of the longest careers in U.S. soccer.<\/li>\n
- \nMatt Turner\u2019s journey from walk-on goalkeeper to international star, with the support of coach Javier Decima, who helped Turner see his own potential long before he could see it himself. Off the pitch, Turner credits his sisters, who pushed him to get in goal and continued to believe in him all the way to the world stage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>
\nLeading up to and during the international tournament, \u201cThe Assist\u201d will also be activated throughout a series of community events, clinics and other experiences celebrating the USMNT and supporting the sport\u2019s continued development at all levels. New York Life has also committed $15 million over three years to partnering with organizations developing the next generation of coaches and mentors through the New York Life Foundation\u2019s Coaching the Future<\/a> initiative.<\/p>
\n\"The Assist\" is an expression of New York Life's \"More powerful, together\" brand promise and reflects the company\u2019s belief that guidance-led financial planning and the right advisor relationship, like the right coach, can change the trajectory of a life.<\/p>
\n\u201cAt New York Life, we know the biggest wins, on the field or in life, are rarely accomplished alone,\u201d said Aaron Ball, executive vice president and head of the Foundational Business at New York Life. \u201cThat belief is at the heart of our brand and reflected in what our 12,000 agents and advisors deliver every day: guidance, partnership, and the kind of \u2018assist\u2019 that helps people move forward with confidence. \u2018The Assist\u2019 is a powerful expression of how the right support from a trusted advisor can help our clients achieve more together.\u201d<\/p>
\nContent from \u201cThe Assist\u201d will continue to be released across New York Life\u2019s owned and social platforms in the coming weeks, surrounding this summer\u2019s competition.<\/p>
