Hometown Favorite Wolff, Retailer Discount Tire, and Bleacher Report Surprised North Austin Soccer Alliance With New Equipment

AUSTIN, Texas, July 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- To celebrate 2025 Major League Soccer MLS All-Star Week in Austin, Discount Tire — the Official Tire Retailer of MLS — teamed up with homegrown Austin FC midfield star, Owen Wolff, and Bleacher Report to surprise one lucky Austin-area youth soccer club.

In a Friday morning visit to North Austin Soccer Alliance practices, Wolff and Discount Tire gifted new equipment, including balls, pop up goals, ball pumps, scrimmage pennies, goalie gloves, shin guards, and more, and spent time having fun doing juggling contests and shoot outs. See the highlight video for Wolff's day with North Austin Soccer Alliance players.

"At Discount Tire, we're proud to support the next generation of soccer players and fans by fueling their passion for the game," said Tom Williams, chief experience officer at Discount Tire.

We're excited to champion the growth of fandom around MLS and support the lifeblood of American soccer: our youth."

At the young age of 16, Wolff signed with Austin FC and became the club's first homegrown player on the pro roster.
