Church's Texas Chicken® Launches New Golazo Meal Where Fans Can Score a Limited-Edition Soccer Ball With Purchase

Four exclusive soccer ball designs debut weekly as the brand kicks off a summer of soccer nationwide

ATLANTA, June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Church's Texas Chicken® is turning up the heat on summer with the launch of its new Golazo Meal, and for a limited time, every meal includes a collectible soccer ball while supplies last*. The offering is the centerpiece of a nationwide summer of soccer celebration designed to bring fans together through food, fandom and shared moments all tournament long.

To keep the excitement building throughout the summer, Church's will release four exclusive soccer ball designs inspired by global soccer powerhouses: USA, Brazil, Argentina and Mexico. A new design arrives each week, creating a limited-time opportunity for fans to collect all four, exclusively available with purchase of a Golazo Meal.

Available now at all U.S. locations, the Golazo Meal is a craveable, shareable feast built for match day watch parties, family meals and summer gatherings. For $39.99, each Golazo Meal includes:

• 20PC Legs & Thighs or Tenders
• 4 Large Classic Sides
• 10 Honey-Butter Biscuits™
• A limited-edition collectible soccer ball, available while supplies last

Each collectible soccer ball goes beyond the meal, giving fans something they can use on the field, bring to the park or add to their collection.

"The Golazo Meal is all about bringing people together around great food and the game they love," said Roland Gonzalez, Chief Executive Officer of Church's Texas Chicken. "By pairing our most shareable meal with a fun, collectible element, we are creating something bigger than just a promotion. It is a way for fans to celebrate soccer all summer long whether they are watching, playing or collecting along the way."

As part of its summer of soccer celebration, Church's is also bringing the spirit of the game into its restaurants through design. For a limited time, guests may receive select meals in a custom, soccer-inspired box created by New Orleans-based multidisciplinary artist Courtney "Ceaux" Buckley, whose bold, expressive style reflects the energy and movement of the game. Buckley, whose work captures the vibrant culture of New Orleans, also has installations in two Church's Texas Chicken restaurants in the city. The limited-edition packaging is available at participating U.S. locations while supplies last.

Extending the celebration into the community, Church's is partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America in Houston to host a soccer clinic for more than 40 local youth ages 10 to 17, focused on skill building, teamwork and mentorship.

Additionally, Church's will also host a block party open to the public on June 27, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. CT at 12131 Kirby Drive, Houston, TX 77045, featuring music, games, food and branded giveaways. The brand will also contribute $1,000 to support local mentorship programming, reinforcing its commitment to making a lasting impact in the Houston community.
