How to Get Involved with the Nivelar La Cancha Program

What is Nivelar La Cancha?

Nivelar La Cancha, translated to english as “leveling the playing field” is a program formed by FUTBO13RA®, Dale Vuelta, FUT+, Tunel19, FutMexNation & ThinkFuera Agency that aims to positively impact young girls and women who play soccer through two avenues:

  1. Virtual Panels that provide tools to people who are part of the women’s soccer ecosystem
  2. Sports Equipment Donation Drive & Fundraiser for girls and women who play soccer but do not have the means to pay for their own equipment

Why Is This Important?

  • 86% of young girls stop playing sports altogether during adolescence
  • According to the recent studies, girls between the ages of 6 to 18 give up playing sports because of a lack of proper equipment
  • 14 is the average age when most girls stop playing sports

Past Impact

2022

Together with professional Liga MX Femenil players Jana Gutiérrez and Jaidy Gutiérrez, we carried out our first sports equipment fundraising campaign with the goal of providing 20 girls between 6 and 17 years old in Monterrey with equipment.

The result was more than we expected:

  • We collected 93 packages with a t-shirt or jersey, shorts, socks and shin guards.
  • We provided three soccer academies with sports equipment such as balls, jerseys and cones to practice drills.
  • We supported a total of five soccer teams through the first edition.  

2023

  • We collected 80 packages with a t-shirt or jersey, shorts, socks and shin guards.
  • We provided five academies with sports equipment such as uniforms, balls, jackets and cones to practice drills including one of the academies servicing deaf women and another one located in Mexico City.
  • We supported a total of six soccer teams with this initiative.

During the 2023 edition, we also held a series of virtual panels in collaboration with the Consulate General of the United States in Tijuana.
