Matteo, Soccer as a Life Experience – Sport for All

Living Unforgettable Moments Thanks to Soccer

This is the story of Matteo, who, thanks to the Sport for All project by Fondazione Milan, has been attending the soccer program at the PlayMore Sports Center for several years now. 

For him, practices are always a moment of great joy. It is wonderful to share a passion for soccer with his teammates, to laugh together, and to create unforgettable memories. Feeling part of a team is something special, which goes beyond the simple game: it is a bond of friendship and sharing that makes every practice and every match a unique experience. 

Here is Matteo’s testimony: 

“When I play, I put my whole self into not just making good plays, but also for the pleasure of sharing those moments with my friends and entertaining those who come to watch us. The sensation I feel when I hear the applause and the amazement of the audience is fantastic, but even more beautiful is seeing the smiles and enthusiasm of my teammates.” 

Taking part in this project has meant a lot to Matteo. Thanks to this experience, he has learned the value of fun and friendship. Every day spent with his teammates is an opportunity to grow together, laugh, and create memories that he will carry with him always.
