WHAT HAPPENED
U.S. soccer icons Ali Krieger and Clint Dempsey have joined forces with Jim Beam, the official spirit partner of the U.S. Soccer Federation, for their latest campaign titled "There's No 'I' In Beam."
The campaign aims to celebrate the spirit of teamwork and shared experiences, both on and off the field. Throughout the campaign, Krieger and Dempsey share personal stories of teamwork and friendship, drawing parallels between their experiences in soccer.
“Just wanting to be really good at something and understanding your why and your passion," Krieger said. "I think you want to be good at it, you want to give your best and you want to succeed. My why was wanting to be a part of team and I wanted to win but at the end of the day, everyone has be bought into that one task and if you’re not, then it’s not going to work."
