The EIR Coach Program is for every woman who wants to master new skills and combine playing sports with meaningful togetherness for long-term change in their local community.

The Program inspire, bring about creativity, imagination, leadership and open doors and break barriers on and off the field.

“Visited Gredos San Diego schools (ages 5-12), reaching 1,000+ students and teachers. Each child got a plant, and classes received extras. We discussed Global Goal 15, other goals, and environmental respect (animals, water, recycling). Younger children learned about equality and respect (boys & girls). A positive and rewarding experience!”

“I consider the GGWCUP unique because it combines four important issues: sport, women, vulnerable populations and the SDGs. My vision is that the women of my team will become inspiring role models, not only for other refugee women but for women with less opportunities in general.” — coach Katerina Salta.

Our Coach Program positions female coaches as key figures to engage more women in physical activity.

Strong female coaches and a new approach to football using the Global Goals can bridge the gap and activate women currently far removed from the sport.
