The Real Madrid Foundation and YKK celebrate their 30th football clinic in Jakarta
The partnership between both entities celebrates 14 years of bringing sports and values-based education to thousands of children in Asia.
The Real Madrid Foundation and YKK reached a new milestone this year in their collaboration with the celebration of the 30th joint football clinic, organized in Jakarta (Indonesia). This figure reflects the strength of an alliance that, since its inception in 2012, has brought the educational methodology of the Real Madrid Foundation to thousands of children in Asia.
In this edition, 340 children from shelters and local communities participated in the social sports activities, also receiving sports gear and equipment. Additionally, a donation of footballs and equipment was made to schools and non-profit organizations, helping to expand opportunities for sports practice and values-based education for more children in the community.
Clinic to train coaches
In addition to the direct work with participants, more than 50 Indonesian coaches took part in a training clinic conducted by professionals from the Real Madrid Foundation. The training focused on sharing methodological tools for football coaching and the holistic development of young athletes, with the aim of transferring this knowledge to their communities and amplifying the educational impact of the project.
The collaboration marks 14 years of joint work, solidifying itself as one of the longest-standing international alliances within the educational programs of the Foundation. During this time, the Real Madrid Foundation and YKK have promoted social clinics in different countries in the region, using football as a tool to convey values and support the holistic development of participants.
Learning on and off the field
Through these activities, children work on technical and tactical aspects of football while learning values such as respect, teamwork, responsibility, inclusion, and coexistence. The methodology of the Real Madrid Foundation places values-based education at the core of all its initiatives, turning every sports session into an opportunity for learning both on and off the field.
