During their winter training camp in Doha, FC Bayern Women made a meaningful visit to the Amna Bint Wahab Preparatory School. Professional footballers and club officials engaged warmly with students, answering questions about life as a professional athlete. This initiative is part of FC Bayern's long-standing Equality Programme, organized since 2018 with the Qatar Women's Sports Committee.
The program's core objective is to foster enthusiasm for women's sports among Qatari girls and teenagers. It emphasizes how sports can empower them to find their voice and gain recognition in society. Players shared personal experiences and encouraged the girls to follow their dreams, with many expressing a newfound desire to play football.
A football training session was also conducted for local girls, led by the coaching team and several players. Head coach Alexander Straus and his staff guided the session, which was met with great enjoyment by the participants. The experience was described as enriching for both the players and the young athletes involved.
