BREAKING BARRIERS FOR ANYONE WHO'S BEEN TOLD THAT THEY COULDN'T DO SPORTS BECAUSE OF THEIR IDENTITY
by GAME
As part of GAME’s partnership in the Breaking Barriers project, five GAME volunteers developed, planned and executed the ‘Be You Camp’ in the GAME House in Copenhagen. The ‘Be You Camp’ was a football camp for girls aged 10-14 with a focus on breaking the barriers for girls entering and participating in football.
“We just try to show them where the passion comes from. Give them a lot of skills and a lot of fun at the same time.”
Breaking Barriers
GAME is partnering with adidas, Common Goal, and Women Win on the Breaking Barriers project to help dismantle cultural stigmas and ensure broad inclusion in sports.
Five of GAME’s volunteers were chosen as ‘champions’ and received leadership training, so they can influence the lives of women and girls in their local communities.
