Volunteering

Promote voluntary commitment!

The whole system of socially relevant work stands and falls with voluntary activities. Club life is directly affected by this. Therefore KOMM MIT supports volunteering on several different levels.

A special focus is placed on the numerous volunteer youth coaches and support staff. They are the ones who give the children the opportunity to participate in sports and learn important social values through games. We are therefore indebted to all these volunteers and show great respect for their commitment.

KOMM MIT expresses this on the one hand through the annual invitations to the traditional “thank-you dinners” – as an appreciation and recognition of the work done in their clubs – during the tournament events. In the past decades, KOMM MIT has thanked more than 25,000 youth coaches for their commitment to society.

KOMM MIT has been supporting volunteerism at the grassroots level for 1983 and therefore knows without a doubt that German soccer would not be what it is today without volunteerism. Every day, numerous officials get involved to offer children and young people in particular the opportunity to engage in sporting activities in their free time. In the clubs, they learn to pass and cross, experience exciting football moments with their teammates and are taught socially relevant values such as fair play and team spirit.
