Valter Birsa and Tim Matavž

In Bilje on Friday, 16.7. 2010, a crowd of several thousand witnesses a charity football match organised by the Slovenian national football team and locals Valter Birsa and Tim Matavž.

These two football aces have shown that they not only have a sense for the ball, but also for humanity.

They invited the cream of the economic, political, sporting and entertainment scene to the playground where they spent their childhood. With the help of sponsors and ticket sales, they managed to raise almost 30,000 €. The funds will go to the Slovenian Association of Friends of Youth and the “Vrabček upanja” Foundation for Disabled Youth. The latter was established to help the Stara Gora Department for Disabled Youth.
