The photo shows a lively scene on a soccer pitch during a public event. The goal net of a small soccer goal can be seen in the foreground. Directly behind it is a white goal wall with a colorful logo and the clearly legible inscription "FUSSBALL GRENZENLOS". A soccer is in the air as if it had just been kicked at the goal. Behind the goal, several children and teenagers are standing on the grass. Some are watching the game, others are actively moving and look as if they are about to shoot or play themselves. The group looks diverse and colorful. In the background, you can see a large crowd of people and various tents or pavilions that suggest a sports or community festival. The atmosphere conveys energy, fun and active togetherness.

The photo shows a training situation on a soccer pitch. Three people are standing in the foreground with their backs to the camera. They are wearing sportswear; club names can be seen on two of the shirts. All three are looking at a person who is explaining something in front of them. In the center of the picture, another person is leaning over a large, white tactics board. Colored magnets are attached to the board, representing player positions or tactical movements. The person points to certain areas of the board with their hands as if explaining a game strategy. The scene takes place outside on a sunny day. The ground consists of green artificial turf. In the background you can see blurred trees and a fence surrounding the training pitch. The people's posture appears concentrated and attentive, as if they are in a training meeting or a course for soccer coaches.

From April 1, it will be possible to register for the courses from summer 2026 in the event calendar.
