How Does It Work?
The players are selected by the school or community centre based on their familiarity with the participants.
The activities include weekly soccer practice, weekly social activities, and monthly tournaments in which 12 regional teams meet for a celebration of sports spirit and values.
The participants are excited to be part of a soccer team and are required to conduct themselves properly at school and at the community centres, with a direct link between school staff, the coach, and the social coordinator.
איך זה עובד?
השתתפות הילדים בתוכנית מותנית בחובת נוכחות ובתפקוד הולם, במרכזי הלמידה של התכנית, בלימודים בבית הספר ובאימונים. כל גילוי של גזענות, אלימות מכל סוג או ניצנים של עבריינות, נתקל בתגובה מידית בדמות השעיה זמנית או קבועה מפעילויות הקבוצה.
With Us, the Field Is the Bridge.
After 13 years of activity, we are proud of the wide geographical distribution and the participants’ diversity of gender, religion, and cultural background. We work to connect different Israeli societies, using sports to get to know each other, to connect, and to develop relationships.
The practice sessions and social centres aim first and foremost to instill respect and equality, and to prevent violence and racism.
These values are manifested in the regional tournaments and other team meetings throughout the year.
