Just a little bit about us

As far as I can remember, I’ve always loved football. I was told as a little girl that “girls can’t play football” and this probably why I feel so strongly about defending and supporting our game and women in sport in general. 

My first Nati’s game was back in 2008 in Nyon, a 0-0 draw against Italy… but I was sold straightaway. Since then, I managed to support our girls at home but also at the UEFA Euro 2017, 2022 and the FIFA World Cup 2023. I am so passionate about our game that I am doing a doctorate focusing on supporting women in football and am myself working in football. All I wish for this fan club is to provide opportunities for women’s football fans to connect and make friends like Amy, Jenni and I did at the Euro 2022, and support our national team regardless of which language we speak or canton we’re from!

Playing football has been a significant part of my life for the past seven years, but my love for the sport traces back to my kindergarten days when I first started watching it. I've been following women's international football since the 2007 World Cup and have remained deeply engaged with the game for the past eight years. Whether it's the World Cup, Euros, Champions League, or a domestic league match in various countries, you'll find me in the stands, passionately contributing to the atmosphere before, during, and after the game. In addition to playing myself and being a dedicated fan, I also contribute to the growth of the women’s game by working for my local association, where I serve as the head of girls' and women's football.

Growing up in a little village and at a conservative boarding school, playing football as a girl never crossed my mind. Years later, I finally stumbled across women’s football and I was hooked immediately. Digging deeper into the world of women’s football, the world not only fascinated me, but the inequalities made me furious. I want to help the growth of women’s football in Switzerland while supporting our beloved Nati.

My journey as a fan started a few years ago when I stumbled across a game on the TV, and since then, I’ve been fortunate to witness the incredible rise of women’s football first hand. In the last few years I have rarely missed a home game of our Nati and travelled to many different countries for football games. However, when I became more involved with the game, the inequalities truly shocked me. Together with Eleni, we decided to create a safe space for supporters. This is how we eventually became a part of this group. 

I’m a long-term UEFA volunteer for the Euros this year, an opportunity that allows me to actively contribute to the tournament and support the development of women’s football in Switzerland. My hope is that this fan club and eventually the euros become a space where supporters can come together, and celebrate the game and the players in a respectful way.

I can't remember a life without football. Even as a child, I used to play football with friends and family in the garden. When I joined the first girls' team at our club, I realised how wonderful it is to play in a team full of young girls. 

I attended my first Nati game in 2021 and quickly realised that I wanted to see more  games from this team. Home games became a place to meet up with friends and I couldn't imagine life without these games. 

I really love the atmosphere and the cheerful mood at the games. I became more and more interested in women's football in Switzerland and also abroad. 

The Women's Euro 2025 was a major event in women's football. I was looking forward to the tournament since it was anounced to be in Switzerland. 

My best friend brought me in to join the fan club. I want to give the Swiss national team the support they deserve and help women's football in Switzerland to grow so that we can achieve great things together.

Football has been a big part of my life since childhood – I used to play in my free time and practically grew up next to the football pitch. Through watching games, I’ve met many amazing people and made new friends. I really enjoy the diversity and openness within the community, as well as the family-friendly and peaceful atmosphere at the matches.

You can often find me not only at national team games but also at league matches, supporting my clubs and enjoying the vibrant spirit of women’s football.

At the Euro 2025 in Switzerland, I had the incredible opportunity to lead the Swiss fan marches with a megaphone – that’s how I became a capo and got to know the people from the fan club. It was an unforgettable experience that made me feel even more connected to the community.
