It is an honor, not an office
Volunteering
We promote volunteer work
Volunteer work means that the entire system of socially relevant work stands or falls. Club life is directly affected by this. KOMM MIT therefore supports volunteering on several different levels.
The numerous volunteer youth trainers and supervisors receive a particular focus. Because it is precisely those who offer children the opportunity to exercise and learn important social values through play. We are therefore very grateful to all these volunteers and show great respect for their commitment.
KOMM MIT expresses this on the one hand through the annual invitations to traditional “thank you dinners” — as an appreciation and recognition of the work done in their clubs — during tournament events. In recent decades, KOMM MIT has thanked more than 25,000 youth trainers for their commitment to society.
KOMM MIT has been supporting volunteer work at the grassroots level for years and therefore knows without doubt that worldwide football would not be what it is today without volunteering. Every day, numerous officials get involved to offer children and young people in particular the opportunity to exercise in their free time. In clubs, they learn passing and shooting, experience exciting sporting moments with their teammates and are taught socially relevant values such as fair play and team spirit.
Across Germany, 1,250,000 volunteers are active in grassroots teams
Over 260 volunteer awards per year.
