FC Bayern Basketball is involved in the Euroleague's One Team program
ONE TEAM is Euroleague Basketball's CSR project, which was launched in spring 2012 with the support of Turkish Airlines. Since then, Euroleague and Eurocup clubs have developed their own programs with the common goal of promoting the integration of disadvantaged minorities into society through basketball. One Team is also a partner of Special Olympics. All 42 EuroLeague and EuroCup teams regularly participate in action days.
As part of the One Team project, FC Bayern Basketball launched a program for young refugees in February 2015 in collaboration with the DJK Rosenheim sports association. Around 20 young refugees who are cared for in facilities in Rosenheim and Frasdorf train there regularly under expert guidance.
In December 2017, the FCBB launched its collaboration with Offene Behindertenarbeit München (OBA) as a One Team project during a EuroCup home game. OBA is a dedicated institution of the Evangelical Lutheran Deanery of Munich. It organizes a wide range of leisure, educational, counseling, and travel opportunities for and with people with learning difficulties.
Last year, the FCBB continued its collaboration with Bellevue di Monaco. The residential and cultural center for refugees and interested Munich residents offers a platform for people with and without a migration background. Under the guidance of an FCBB coach, participants had the opportunity to learn basketball and improve their skills at BMW Park. One Team Ambassadors Isaac Bonga and Sylvain Francisco, as well as FCBB youth teams, were regularly involved in the activities.
Since the 2024/25 season, FCBB has been working with the Munich Orphanage, a refuge and second home for children and young people aged 0 to 20. Twice a month, the group meets at BMW Park or on site for a joint training session. This is led by One Team Coach Xaver Nassermann. Ambassadors Oscar da Silva and Niels Giffey also regularly take part in the training sessions. In addition, joint match day visits and other activities with the Munich Orphanage take place.
FC Bayern Basketball is delighted to have the Regine Sixt Children's Aid Foundation as a partner for the One Team season and is grateful for the joint support of this important project.
The aim of the program is to convey important values such as team spirit, respect, and cohesion and to actively integrate children and young people into society.
