There are 3-5.000 decision making opportunities in a single football match. Match-like situations are crucial for facilitating the transfer of learning— from training to game day to real life.
Taking action and playing football are very closely related. We go through a similar information process in order to position ourselves, to conquer and to score/achieve a goal.
Football is also about creating and taking space for yourself and your teammates. It is about the process and the countless decisions that allow each player and team to thrive.
We become decision-makers when we have the courage to take and create space on and off the field, in order to make the world a better place.
In what part of society and the world do you want to take and create space for yourselves and others?
-
Yes, all skill levels are welcome.
We celebrate diversity in our teams, cultures, companies, friendships, and among feminists and activists.
Tournament, League and Coach programs are designed and open to women aged 18.

The Global Goals are a roadmap to a better world, tackling issues like poverty, inequality, and climate change.
By playing for the Global Goals, you're not just competing on the field, you're contributing to positive change in your community and around the world. You are giving back and building the world you want to live in.
The Sensational Games' mission of promoting gender equality and creating opportunities for women and girls through sports directly aligns with Global Goal 5.
