Clubhouse Team Talk #7: Team Soccer Divas

UNDP Goodwill Ambassador Nikolaj Coster-Waldau talks to GGWCUP team Soccer Divas from Mombasa about the role of sport and women in creating Peace and Justice.

This Monday we catch up with Team Soccer Divas from The Soccer Divas Club in Mombassa, Kenya.

Tournaments:

  • GGWCUP Nairobi in 2017

  • GGWCUP Johannesburg 2018

  • GGWCUP East Africa 2020

Mariam Mpaata is the goalkeeper of the team and our host partner creating the GGWCUP East Africa 2020.

“One other memorable moment was taking an eight hour bus ride all the way from Mombasa to Nairobi we giggled and laughed like little girls all the way. It was so refreshing for all of us. When we arrived in Nairobi, the best part was meeting all the other 27 teams advocating for the different goals. There were so many young girls and women all pursuing common global goals. Taking part in the GGWCUP also gave our youngest player the zeal to master all the 17 global goals. The experience has indeed been priceless. We continue to deliberately look for ways in which we can speak about these global goals. We have become global goals ambassadors without knowing it.” – goalkeeper and founder Marian Mpaata about the GGWCUP Nairobi 2017.
