On September 18, the second integration profession football tournament "My Profession" took place at the stadium of the Kaunas College of Technology Vocational Training Center's Social Services Department, where students with special educational needs (from the Social Services Department of the Kaunas College of Technology Vocational Training Center), beauty sector specialists ("Beauty Loft"), nurses (from VšĮ Vilkijos PSPC), teachers (from the Social Services Department of the Kaunas College of Technology Vocational Training Center and Kaunas "Herojus" School), chefs (from the Social Services Department of the Kaunas College of Technology Vocational Training Center), mothers (from the Garliava FK club), and students (from Kaunas "Herojus" School) gathered to test their strength.

The participants played three against three with a size one ball. During the matches, the players made decisions themselves, thus showing respect for each other. Throughout the event, the teams not only tested their strength on the football field but also participated in a reaction and accuracy competition.

The football event was opened with a lively and cheerful warm-up by FK "Vilkija" and FK "Garliava" football coach and one of the event organizers, Ernestas Fedorčak.

A large crowd of supportive spectators not only cheered with applause and loud ovations but also with rhythmic drum sounds, creating a wonderful atmosphere both outside and inside the pitch, where one could witness fierce and emotional competitions.

The first place was claimed by the Garliava mothers' team, who narrowly defeated the chefs' team from the Social Services Department of the Kaunas College of Technology Vocational Training Center with a score of 1-0 in a tough match for the top position. The third place was occupied by the team from VšĮ Vilkijos PSPC, which narrowly defeated the teachers' team from Kaunas "Herojus" School.

All participants were awarded by one of the organizers, Ernestas Fedorčak, who presented prizes established by the Kaunas County Football Federation, as well as personal prizes from the Lithuanian Mass Football Association. The Lithuanian Football Federation invited all the festival participants to the UEFA Nations League match Lithuania-Kosovo, which will take place on October 12 at the Kaunas Dariaus and Girėnas Stadium.
