Playing Together

Reading on the Pitch’s (ROTP) newest initiative using the universal language of football (soccer) to unite players from around the globe has begun! Football (soccer) has the incredible ability to transcend culture, religion, and nationality, all for the love of the game. In what is the first of many, ROTP is currently running a biweekly program where players from Sudan, South Sudan, and Egypt train and play competitive matches together. Through the leadership of coaches from Sudan, South Sudan, and Egypt, ROTP players are led by example through the observation of effective communication, respect, teamwork, cooperation, support, kindness, and joy. Over the years, ROTP has successfully built long lasting relationships with the communities we work alongside, and through our model, we intend to foster cross-cultural friendships with our ROTP players from various programs through this beautiful game. Yalla Let’s Play Together!
