GC Zurich has been running a unified team since fall 2024, which was launched in collaboration with the Zwyssig Foundation and the Sandoz-Mey family. Under the three pillars of sport, social life and inclusion, the project aims to unite people with and without disabilities. In addition to training sessions and matches on the course, joint team events and excursions are also organized for the members. 

The GC Unified Team welcomes all people with different types of disabilities, regardless of their abilities and limitations. Fostering a strong team spirit and a welcoming and supportive atmosphere is key.

GC legend Ricardo Cabanas and player Pascal Schürpf act as patrons of the team. They pay regular training visits to the unified team.

Training and competition

Under the guidance of four experienced coaches, the GC Unified Team trains once a week at Letzigrund Stadium and once a month at the GC/Campus, the club's training ground. The team is also given the opportunity to take part in tournaments and matches, where they can showcase and develop their skills.

These events are planned for the GC Unified Team:
