Eunice Beckmann to star in ground-breaking UEFA vlog promoting womens' football

FC Basel striker, Eunice Beckmann has been selected as one of four top professional footballers across Europe to take part in a UEFA weekly vlog series designed to take an in-depth look at the life of a Ghanaian pro footballer in Switzerland.

The 25 year old forward was born in Wuppertal to Ghanaian parents.

The project aims to raise the visibility of women's football to teenage girls and showcase the game as an aspirational lifestyle choice.

Eunice’s ultimate goal is to inspire young and talented boys and girls across Africa and the world at large to reach and exceed their potential.

“Taking part in the Press Play blog series is fantastic because I’m doing it with three of my friends. Despite living in different countries, we all try to keep in touch as much as possible, and I think it will be great for girls to see how close we all are thanks to football. I’m also excited to give an insight into football in Switzerland, and show girls where the sport could take them”

The first episode of Press Play will premiere on 18th January 2018.
