The main theme of like-mindedness was derived from the sub-themes of willingness to participate and willingness to continue. In the sub-theme of willingness to participate, expressions emerged in which the team spirit increased the willingness to participate or created a sense of responsibility towards fellow enthusiasts to participate in the exercises.

The main theme of the new learning consisted of the sub-themes of different hobbies, learning techniques, interest in the sport and experiences of success. Interviewees highlighted in interviews how football was not a familiar sport as a pastime, but there was interest in experimenting.

The results of the interviews showed that those who played recreational football met new people during the training period and thus created new social relationships, which in part also continued in their free time.

Based on the interviews, the age or skill level of the participant was not relevant to the motivation to participate in the training, as football was played together and thus the most important factors became the liking of the training and having fun. The study revealed the importance of community as part of motivation to participate in internships. Together, training and “belonging to the group” increased an individual’s sense of responsibility and motivation to practice. Training was felt to increase leisure-time exercise skills in order to cope better with fitness football exercises and other activities.
