VIDEO: Teaming up with FIFA to inspire football dreams

Football: Driving forward positive change

Through our partnership with FIFA, we inspire and enable players at the FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup^TM.

Fajer Alshiban, Al-Qadsiah girls team football player

I was really excited playing with people my age from different countries and especially the hardest part was the language barrier.

I really liked how we played around; we had fun, even though we barely understood each other, we still understood.

Colombia is one of the countries I really wanted to go, especially with football.

And when I was in the tunnel, I really liked how I could feel the players’ emotions before the match and like how some of them were really excited and some of them were nervous.

Lamar AlNasser, Al-Qadsiah girls’ team football player

It was such a great experience to do that.

I would say to have an opportunity to play football in Al-Qadsiah in Saudi is really good, because before, women didn’t have that much of an opportunity to play.

But now, we have more opportunities growing, going more for us to play.

We partner with FIFA to support youth in competing at the highest levels.
