Ousseni Bouda ’19 Receives Community Service Award
Recently, Millbrook alumnus and Major League Soccer forward Ousseni Bouda ’19 was honored with the 2025 Andrew Bedard Spirit of the Game award by his club, the San Jose Earthquakes.
Created in memory of a fan who died tragically young, the award is “presented annually to the Earthquakes player that works hard in the community and best embodies Andrew’s positive attitude both on and off the field,” per the team’s website. Bouda received the award for his work with youth in the local Bay Area community and abroad in his home country of Ghana.

Bouda, who was the No. 8 overall pick in the 2022 MLS SuperDraft, has tallied six goals and one assist in 73 games (18 starts) over his MLS career. He re-signed with the Earthquakes in June, inking a two-year extension with an option for 2028.
At Millbrook, Bouda gained nationwide attention as the Gatorade National Boys Soccer Player of the Year in his Vth form season and the USA Today All-USA High School Boys Soccer Player of the Year as a VIth former. Stanford University took notice, and he went on to play there in the 2019-20 and 2021-22 seasons, earning All-Pac-12 First Team honors each season.
We’re proud to see Ousseni living out the Millbrook value of community service as he thrives in his professional athletic career!
