“Nobody Offside” Tournament – organised by N.E.C
From the 23rd until the 28th of May, the international special football tournament, “Nobody Offside”, will be hosted by N.E.C in Nijmegen.
N.E.C, is strongly supporting people with a mental handicap. To do this, the Dutch football club is cooperating with EFDN, Brownies & downieS, Uniek Sporten regio Nijmegen and the Entrepreneur Society of the region Nijmegen (OSNRN).
Different professional and amateur football clubs will send twelve teams from different countries to participate in the “Nobody Offside” Tournament. The teams do not only take part in the tournament but also attend a variety of workshops, including cooking sessions and lessons on self-presentation skills. The Nobody Offside event follows the objective of providing the participants with the possibility to develop important “Lifeskills”. N.E.C and its partners hope to have created a programme, which gives the young people a possibility to participate even better into society.
