Eva is an incredibly inspiring woman. Not only has she represented her country on the international stage playing football, but she is also a coach for boys and girls in her community. Her sessions create a fun learning environment for children, where they can come to hone their football skills and also learn about important social issues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

My Story<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n\n

\n

“I was born in Bandung, West Java. I have two brothers and three sons. Life was pretty normal growing up. I joined Rumah Cemara as a volunteer in 2010, which was the same year that I found out that I was HIV positive. At first, I was quite depressed, but we were fortunate that in 2010 we could access a lot of information and knowledge from the internet.<\/p>\n

At Rumah Cemara, I was employed as a member of staff between 2013-17 but I am now back volunteering with them. I wasn\u2019t really interested in football before joining them. However, in my opinion, football is a very good medium to communicate social issues. I mainly teach technical skills during my football sessions but there is a certain time when I insert a social issue. For example, during the warm-up or during drills and games I can include messages on different social topics. In Rumah Cemara, I learnt how to use football as a way to introduce and communicate about HIV. But when girls or women join my activities, I can also give other knowledge, not just about HIV, but about reproductive systems or anything related to women, like gender equality.<\/p>\n

I am really proud to be a coach, I am proud to be a football player and, I am also proud that I can share the knowledge that I have. The session where Scort and the FCSA taught about the coach as a role model, it helped me develop my personality, so that outside of the field I can become a better coach and mentor for my students. Now, my students are open to share their stories or problems with me.<\/p>\n

With the Scort Foundation and other organisations, we can create more coaches in Indonesia. I hope that the knowledge will not disappear… I always remind my Peer Coaches that I also started with zero coaching experience, just like them. I tell them not to forget that after they gain more knowledge they have to pass on this knowledge to their juniors too.<\/p>\n

I do not know if my children are interested in football or not. What I do know, is that my children love to join the football sessions because they look at mum and mum is a person they can be proud of, mum is a football player, mum is a coach, so they want to join me. They were really happy and proud that they could see me go abroad to Mexico for the Homeless World Cup in 2018. I was the only female player on my team.”<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n
