After a complicated start to the year in Thailand still marked by the pandemic, class suspensions, and uncertainty to carry out our work, we finally resumed normality in the 22-23 season, and from June on, we can carry out all the training sessions with the boys and girls.
With the return of normality, Gate’s work in Thailand comes back stronger than ever, and this year is characterized by being present at many events and involving boys and girls in more activities.

event 2022
The program of the event included the following activities:
Matches between coaches and cadet and children’s teams.

Delivery of letters from children in our project in Thailand to the players.
The year 2022 in both projects is defined as a year of changes, new implementations, and giving that boost that allows us to advance and become even more efficient in our impact with children and families through our resources.
The end of the previous season allowed us to assess and analyze, despite some difficulties caused by the pandemic, to improve and be more precise in our ultimate focus of helping children.
The new season is characterized by a general improvement, both in terms of internal processes that we carry out every day, and in the search for that efficient impact that allows us to offer children the guarantees of helping them with their needs.
It is a year of progress and consolidation of our methodology.
Consolidation of our methodology and opening of new categories and groups to increase the number of boys and girls.
Academic support
Continuity and implementation of our academic support program focused on helping with daily school assignments and reinforcing key subjects in their stage, such as English among others.
The lack of resources or sufficient support to keep up with their academic development is one of the most common problems that some children usually have, and one of the main causes of demotivation or early school dropout.
Helping the most vulnerable
Development and implementation of the new heart sponsorship program for specific cases. The objective is to close 2023 by helping as many children as possible who are in situations of extreme vulnerability.
Improving general well-being
Our programs allow us to develop improvements in emotional, social, cognitive, and physical aspects in children that benefit their teaching-learning process.
Creating community support networks
The opportunities for participation for families and children increase when a network of collaborations is generated that allows us to offer a greater number of resources and possibilities
Our methodology is consolidated season after season, seeking those small improvements that allow us to be increasingly demanding in our ultimate goal of offering children optimal tools and resources for their future.
Heart Program
Sponsorship program in Thailand
A program where immediate or short-term impact is sought through solutions offered for different special cases detected in some children and their families. From the most basic needs to more complex but radically immediate impact solutions.
Curation Program
Medium-term sustainability program for families or children
This program is characterized as another of the new paths that Gate proposes to work on the future of children and families, seeking an improvement in their living situation through measures that can serve to seek resources that generate a positive change in the medium to long term, both in terms of income economics, as in other aspects that can serve to improve or achieve their objectives.
Value program
The empowerment and integral development of minors through sports and socio-educational strategies and activities, keys to improving adequate social and emotional well-being and enhancing their quality of life.
Acquiring skills, tools, and learning allows for increased integration opportunities and developing a better perspective of the future.
Monitoring and support during the program facilitate identifying the needs and progress of minors.
Sport as an engine for change
Football
Training sessions related to the values program, where an improvement in the physical and sports qualities of children is sought, emphasizing the transfer of values through football that is developed through playful-technical learning.

Carito family
When we arrived in Spain, we went from shelter to shelter until we moved to the Pan Bendito district. There, the social worker who helped us gave Nico a football. He was happy, but even more so when they told us he could start to train with the Atlético Pan Bendito team. Thanks to its coaches, Gate of Football and those who support it. I don’t know if my son will be a major football star, but I am sure that I will always support him in playing sports as a part of a healthy lifestyle.
Mónica, Nico's mother
