Learning German on the soccer field

As part of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the Goethe-Institut USA is organizing interactive soccer camps at selected schools in the United States.

The camps are part of the Goethe-Institut USA's educational campaign for the 2026 World Cup. They combine sports, language, and intercultural exchange, creating new approaches to German culture in the context of a global sporting event.
