More than Eleven feelings: una cartilla digital para fortalecer habilidades socioemocianales en niñas fútbolistas de la Fundación More than Eleven en el Municipio de Itagui

Abstract

The purpose of this project is to design a digital booklet aimed to strength socio-emotional education for young female soccer players belonging to the More Than Eleven Foundation located in Itagui, Antioquia. This proposal arises from the identification of a need in the sports field: the lack of structures spaces for emotional development, where girls learn how to recognize, express and manage their emotions assertively both on and off the playing field. In traditional sports contexts, training usually focus on physical and technical development, leaving aside the emotional component, which is essential for psychological well-being and healthy group interaction. Taking that into account, the digital booklet is presented as an innovative educational tool that combines soccer, technology and emotional education, allowing for the creation of active, meaningful and accessible learning experiences aimed at the development of participants. The design of the booklet conceives learning as a dynamic process in which girls create their knowledge based on experience, reflection, and interaction with their peers. It also incorporates technological resources that make autonomous learning easier and promote key skills such as emotional self-regulation, assertive communication, and collaborative work. It fosters a more inclusive sports culture, where emotional development is valued as much as physical performance. This initiative represents a significant contribution to the comprehensive development of girls football players by integrating the emotional dimension into teaching-learning process and leveraging emerging technologies as mediators of personal and social development. In general, the booklet aims to contribute to strenghtening the socioemotional component in youth sports contexts, fostering self-confidence. Resilience and cooperation. At the same time, it wants to promote a more inclusive sports culture, where emotional development is valued as much as physical performance.
