A partnership driven by passion
1.46 million members are organised in the Bavarian Soccer Association. Its approximately 20,000 youth teams compete for victories and goals on the soccer pitch. Their passion is soccer – the passion of Onlineprinters GmbH is printing. "If children have fun and enjoy what they are doing, success will come naturally", Roland Mehltretter, BFV project and sponsor manager, describes the popular Bavarian holiday projects in which 4,000 children from age 8 to 15 have participated last year. The youngsters taking part in the BFV holiday camps & soccer schools are trained by real "soccer pros". During the holiday training sessions that last several days, professional players and coaches teach the children soccer techniques and promote team spirit. Partners like Onlineprinters GmbH provide their support to give many children and youngsters the chance to take part in the programme and to keep the costs affordable. "With the BFV holiday camps & soccer schools, we have found a fantastic platform which highlights the fun and the passion to play soccer", Walter Meyer, managing director of Onlineprinters GmbH, summarises the idea behind the commitment. "In addition to focusing on clubs and their members, we particularly want to support the young generation in the BFV, and we are looking forward to expanding the cooperation."
