Through sports and football we manage to give hope - to reduce gaps, to create equal opportunities and to create partnerships.

We welcome the launch of the program and hope that for the participants it will be an opening for community connection and a tool for personal development."

The coach of the Israeli national team, Alon Hazan: "Football is a professional and valuable world that provides tools to deal with high and low moments in life, on and off the field. Victory has so many ways of expression and it is far from being expressed only with a ball in the net or three points. I have a right It's great to be part of a wonderful, original and boundary-breaking project together with the football association that most clearly expresses values ​​of mutual guarantee, social responsibility and a second chance."

During the festive meeting, which was led by the Shear Shevion association and the head of social responsibility in the football association, Ziv Solomon, the participants were given game uniforms and they talked to the team's coach about meeting goals, determination and also tried their hand at goal kicks.
