Mission

At BIFC, our mission is to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment where young athletes from all cultural, social, and economic backgrounds can come together to play and grow through football. We are dedicated to serving Basel's diverse and international community, offering a space where youths from different regions, countries, and cultures can unite.

BIFC is committed to creating equal opportunities for all children to participate in the sport they love. We strive to ensure that football is accessible to everyone, providing an open and inclusive space that fosters friendship, teamwork, and mutual respect. Through high-quality coaching and a strong emphasis on core values such as respect, discipline, and sportsmanship, we help shape confident, well-rounded individuals both on and off the pitch.

As a non-profit association, we seek to inspire our young athletes not only to develop their football skills but also to embrace diversity and community. BIFC is made up of children from over 30 countries, and although we speak different languages and come from diverse cultures, it is this uniqueness that makes us special. Our goal is to unite youths under the shared passion for football, creating a platform where everyone can thrive — regardless of their background or location — by simply belonging to the game.
