The SD Eibar once again puts its colors at the service of sports and inclusion. Our club participates once more in the competition organized by LALIGA and the LALIGA Foundation in the refugee camps of Za’atari and Azraq (Jordan), a project that uses football as a tool to promote positive values, improve the well-being of young people, and strengthen coexistence in environments of special vulnerability.

More than 430 boys and girls are participating this season, divided into 42 teams, which will play a total of 166 matches. The boys and girls from Za’atari will play 106 matches in 26 teams, while in Azraq, 60 matches will be held with 16 teams. The competition is organized into under-14 and under-16 categories for boys, and under-15 and under-18 categories for girls, ensuring the continuity of the young participants already part of the program and supporting their athletic and personal growth.

The participation of SD Eibar allows our colors to be seen on the field and our values, the same ones that guide our entire club and our inclusive projects, to accompany the players in every match. As part of the 16 professional clubs represented, we contribute to filling the playing fields with color, excitement, and passion, creating a real impact on the lives of these young people.

The program applies the methodology “Values to Win”, which rewards both sports performance and the behavior and attitude of participants on the field, with 3 points for sports merits and 7 for socio-educational merits. This season, individual evaluations for all players and coaches are also being introduced, enhancing their technical and human skills and reinforcing the message that football can be a driver of learning and personal development.

With our participation, the SD Eibar Fundazioa reaffirms its commitment to football as a social and educational tool, showing that professional sports can also create opportunities, inclusion, and community beyond our borders.
