About the Tournament
Increasing awareness among the local community about presence of different culture and nationalities in Silesia. Connecting foreigners among them and helping them to integrate in the country. Sending the message that sharing is caring and a common passion for sport, like football for example, can put together people independently from nationality, religion, age, gender, sex orientation, etc.
GE4 Silesia’s main project over the last few years has been the Katowice Internationals World Cup.
The project’s idea grew naturally from the healthy international football community in Silesia. Astounded by the number of different nationalities represented at his training sessions, Marco Cillepi found that football was an incredibly powerful tool for the integration of foreigners into the local community.
In cooperation with his friends and cofounders, Greg Kandziora and Abadi Murshid, the first edition of the Katowice Internationals World Cup was launched in May 2018.
