We believe in creating a space that is inclusive, safe(r), and FUN. This means treating each other with care and respect, both on and off the field & we all share and hold this responsibility at the moment you enter this space, so what's important to keep in mind?
⚽ Play together, grow together. Skill level doesn’t matter, maybe beginner or advanced? we don care because we’re here to support, teach, and learn from one another, do you see that someone can improve themself just ask first "hey (name), can i maybe give you a tip" and bring it informative and as an option ; )
💜 Respect comes first. Speak and act with kindness, both on the pitch and outside it, we dont want to work with a hierarchy and find it important that people can bring ideas into the group, but when one of the trainers already prepared an training first ask if its possible or make an plan for the next session so we can respect the energy the person put into organizing it and next session its on you : )
