EQUALITY
OF THE GENDERS

CREATE ACCEPTANCE - REDUCE PREJUDICES

Girls’ and women’s football has always been an essential part of KOMM MIT’s event calendars. What was and is a matter of course for us, namely that girls as well as boys actively play football and travel to events abroad to be part of an intercultural youth exchange, is unfortunately still not a matter of course in some societies.

We are committed to helping girls and young women experience sporting moments in a positive, fair and celebratory setting, both nationally and internationally, and to giving them the opportunity to get to know each other across national borders, thus building a network for girls’ and women’s soccer.

To this end, various campaigns have been carried out in the past, such as “Girls on the Ball”, a campaign that lasted several years together with the Fußball-Verband Mittelrhein, supported by “Wissen macht Ah” moderator Shary Reeves.

Our projects

FVM Mentoring Programme

Copyright: FVM

As a long-standing partner of the FVM in the area of youth development, KOMM MIT supports the project “FVM vor Ort: Mentoring für Mädchentrainer*innen”. The aim of the project is to reduce the high drop-out rate in girls’ football and to pay more attention to retaining the players who already play football in the clubs’ girls’ teams.

In order to achieve this goal, the coaches are to be sustainably qualified by our mentors, so that the training attractiveness is increased and the players enjoy playing football. In addition, the coaches will be trained in dealing with the players, taking into account the pedagogical and psychological characteristics of girls’ football.

Girls Football Festival

The “Girls Football Festival” is the latest KOMM MIT project for national and international girls’ and women’s football.

In an exciting mix of tournament events with festival character paired with workshops and networking opportunities on the topic of girls’ and women’s football, and all this in an international atmosphere, the aim is to strengthen girls’ and women’s football in the long term.
