Project Summary

In our work, we asked ourselves: are we able to use the power and potential of football to solve social problems related to everyday problems of young people? Can sport help young people in a difficult social situation break through and overcome barriers? Can football be used by teachers / youth workers in education, not only in physical education classes? Together with the organization from the Czech Republic, Inex-Sda, we undertook the challenge of finding answers. We took care of developing an idea and a tool that could serve as a support for young people (including children) and for those working with youth in the area of education and upbringing.

Today, with some satisfaction, we can say: yes football can help solve social problems. Yes, football can help overcome the barriers that young people face. Yes, football can be used by people working with youth. Football can enable people working with youth and youth to develop social skills, social commitment.
The Fair Play Program was created, which is an educational and social program that uses the football3 method and the idea of gamification on a global scale, which, appropriately enriched with social and composed tasks, create a very simple and useful non-formal education tool giving the opportunity to develop life skills and social skills. We hope that in the long term this program will strengthen relationships and social bonds and enrich participants with knowledge and skills necessary and at the same time useful in functioning with other people in today’s world, Fair Play Program, because being Fair Play can go beyond sport, out of the ball foot, because being Fair Play is a value and pattern of attitude for everyone and every day.
As a result of our activities, we created the ebook / toolkit of the Fair Play Program and the creator of games and games. These are tools that serve youth workers in their daily work.
In order to strengthen the development of programs in Poland and the Czech Republic, a strategy for 2018-2022 was created.
