Participate in this year’s #Morethanfootball Action Weeks
Football is not only about the 90 minutes on the pitch, it’s much more than the beautiful game. European football organisations prove daily that they are #Morethanfootball. With their tremendous initiatives in their communities they help to create a better society. We as the European Football for Development Network want to highlight these initiatives to reach more participants, emphasize the important role of sport for development and motivate more clubs, leagues and FA’s to join us. If we can harness the power of football and share these social development activities, we can have an even greater positive impact!
Since 2017, the #Morethanfootball Action Weeks encourage the further development of Community and Social responsibility in European Football. The European Football Community gets the spotlight during this campaign to showcase the impact of their initiatives. In 2021 more than 120 clubs, leagues and FA’s participated, reaching more than 41 million people worldwide and creating more than 1100 media posts during these weeks.
This year, as we have struggled with the COVID-19 pandemic for about two years now, we know we can get far if we continue to work together by showing our solidarity in our neighbourhoods and looking out for each other. These actions will be guiding us through the whole Morethanfootball Action Weeks reminding us of what we’ve achieved so far and giving us a direction as to where we want to go in the future. Together we are #Morethanfootball!
