Her game, Her Future - Hockey for inclusion. Arg.

Thanks to your generous support, 2025 was a remarkable year for Virreyes Hockey. Throughout the year, more than 150 girls from the Virreyes community participated in weekly trainings, strengthening not only their athletic skills but also their confidence, teamwork, and sense of belonging.

During the season, the teams took part in numerous friendly matches and local tournaments. These experiences allowed the girls to challenge themselves, celebrate their progress, and proudly represent their neighborhood. Beyond the field, hockey continues to be a powerful tool for social development, helping participants build friendships, develop leadership skills, and grow in a supportive environment.

For many of the girls, Virreyes Hockey represents much more than a sports program. It is a safe and joyful space for recreation, connection, and personal growth, especially in a context where opportunities for girls’ participation in sports are often limited.

As we begin 2026, we are excited to continue this journey. The teams are preparing to start a new season of trainings and matches, welcoming both returning players and new girls from the neighborhood. Through hockey, we aim to keep reducing social and gender gaps, while providing a space where girls can play, learn, and thrive.

Your support makes all of this possible. Thank you for helping us create opportunities, strengthen our community, and empower the next generation of girls through sport.

Project Report – Virreyes Hockey: Empowering Girls Through Sport

Thanks to your generous support, 150 girls aged 6 to 18 continue to train every week as part of Virreyes Hockey, developing discipline, teamwork, and confidence both on and off the field.

Every weekend, our teams participate in friendly matches and local tournaments. With your help, we’ve been able to provide safe school transportation, allowing players to travel to other venues and compete with pride. After each match, they enjoy healthy snacks shared during the traditional “third half,” reinforcing the spirit of community and friendship.

This year, your contributions also made it possible for the girls to go on a sports tour, a transformative experience that strengthened bonds among teammates, deepened their commitment to healthy living, and reminded them of the power of collective effort.

Through hockey, these young athletes are not only learning to play a sport — they’re learning resilience, solidarity, and self-belief. Your ongoing support makes this journey possible.

Thank you for believing in them and helping us build a brighter, stronger community through sport.
