Here from the start.

As a main partner of the Swiss Football Association, we are here from the start of every player’s journey – and here to help talented young players grow. From their first steps on the pitch to the greatest moments in football. We offer support for talented players, teams and fans, foster a sense of community and create unforgettable experiences – both on and off the pitch, in the spotlight and behind the scenes. Together, we’re getting Switzerland moving.

One Nation. One Jersey.

Our fan jersey has travelled all across Switzerland. Thousands of fans have added their personal messages, creating a unique symbol of support for our national team. Today, this jersey carries the voice of an entire nation: with nearly 10,000 messages, it has become a symbol of unity, passion and anticipation for a memorable summer of football.

A heartfelt thank you to all of you!

We are truly overwhelmed by your support, creativity and dedication.

What’s next?

The fan jersey has now completed its journey across Switzerland and is taking center stage at a very special moment: we are surprising our national team with what is likely the largest fan message in Switzerland, just before they depart for North America.

The film capturing this surprise will be released here shortly, in time for the team’s first match.

Stay tuned – and once again: Go Switzerland!

With UBS Football for Girls, UBS is further expanding its commitment to the existing "Doppelpass" and "UEFA Playmakers" projects with additional events and financial support. These event formats offer girls throughout Switzerland the opportunity to gain their first football experience and are intended to provide additional impetus for the promotion of girls. UBS is thus making an important contribution to the implementation of the SFA Legacy and creating sustainable structures for the promotion of girls and women in Swiss football.

A new, central element of the project is the Kickstart toolbox, which was developed together with the SFA. This toolbox offers valuable support for schools and clubs to make it easier to get into football. It contains practical tips and tricks, exercise booklets with 25 exercises, themed cards with theoretical content and practical tips, as well as posters and stickers to get girls excited.
