Calcio Sociale

The Calcio Sociale project has been running for over three years in Rome’s Corviale neighbourhood. This area is characterised by a very high population density and by a reinforced concrete building about one kilometre long. The Laureus Foundation collaborates with the sports club "Calcio Sociale” which around 20 children participate in per year. This is about giving children the opportunity to play football together without any form of discrimination.

Right at the foot of this building is the Campo dei Miracoli, a sports and social centre where social football is practiced, a new football philosophy in which everyone can play against everyone regardless of age, gender and disability. The rules are based on the respect and honesty of the players on the pitch.
