One of the cornerstones of our activities is the regular, free football training sessions held weekly at locations both in the capital and across the country.<\/b> These sessions not only promote a healthy lifestyle but also provide stability and routine \u2013 something especially important for those whose lives often lack it. Alongside technical and tactical basics, we develop skills such as cooperation, perseverance, and self\u2011discipline, which participants can apply in everyday life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Off\u2011field and preventive activities:<\/b> For us, football is a tool \u2013 it builds bridges and opens doors. The aim of our off\u2011field programs is to complement the power of sport with comprehensive support for those who turn to us. Participants not only take part in training but also receive guidance in life management, education, and employment. Our focus is on initiating real, lasting change \u2013 whether in learning, entering the workforce, or personal development. Our prevention programs \u2013 such as early pregnancy prevention, financial literacy, scholarship support, or social work \u2013 all serve the goal of helping participants shape their life paths with greater confidence, awareness, and balance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Scholarship Program:<\/b> Our players have the opportunity to apply for a scholarship program supported by the UEFA Foundation for Children, through which they receive tailored support to achieve their professional goals.<\/span><\/p>\n

Early Pregnancy Prevention:<\/b> Through regular educational and support programs, we work to prevent early, unwanted pregnancies, helping young people make responsible decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Financial Literacy:<\/b> Participants acquire essential skills such as budgeting, saving, and conscious spending, thereby strengthening financial independence and responsible behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n

Employment Skills Development:<\/b> We support young people in job searching, CV writing, interview preparation, and communication skills to increase their chances in the labor market.<\/span><\/p>\n

Social Work:<\/b> At our regular training sessions and events, social workers join the coaches to help players address life management issues (e.g., housing, family support, etc.).<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to domestic championships, international tournaments are a vital part of our professional program.<\/b> Foreign trips and world competitions not only provide the greatest motivational force for our athletes throughout the year but also create lifelong memories and inspiration.<\/span><\/p>\n

The world\u2019s largest international grassroots tournament is the <\/span>Homeless World Cup<\/b>, in which we have participated every year since 2005.<\/span><\/p>\n
