World champion Nia Künzer presented the Albert Schweitzer School with a donation check worth €2000 as part of the Frankfurter Rundschau’s “Schlappekicker” campaign.
On this day, everything was a little different than usual for the FtK kids at the Albert Schweitzer School. Soccer training yes, but in addition to their soccer coach Kai Klingenhöfer, there was also a woman who once shot Germany to the World Cup title, when they themselves were far from being born. The boys certainly had a lot of fun, it was a great pleasure for them to play together with Nia.
The former footballer herself was not too shy to get involved in a little match with the boys. Here at her old place of work, it was she herself who launched the first all-girls team at “Fußball trifft Kultur” in 2011.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved in the “Schlappekicker” campaign and the Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper for their support of our integrative education program.
Jürgen Streicher from the Frankfurter Rundschau writes: “Erjon, Karl, Jonathan and all the other talented players from many different countries already have a lot to offer at the age of just under ten. They fight with full commitment, but fair play is the top priority. The boys manage this well and get on well with coach Kai Klingelhöfer. He wears the eagle on his chest and Eintracht on his back, which is always a positive incentive.”
