Challenging Racism in Football

The project aims to increase the awareness of racism throughout all levels of football in Wales. The project will provide support and resources to educate the football family on how to challenge racism and report any incident of discrimination both on and off the field.

We have also developed an online reporting form to report incidents of racism in Wales. Visit the report it page HERE.

To achieve the aims of this project we have developed a range of workshops and educational resources.

Educational Workshops

Our educational workshops are tailored specific for football clubs, players, coaches and referees. The core aim of all the workshops are to educate about the different forms racism can take, along with how to recognise and report it. Each workshop uses scenarios that have occurred across at all levels of the game in Wales to provide examples of issues that may arise and discusses the importance of using the correct terminology discussing the issues with certain words and the history behind those words.

If you are interested in hosting one of our workshops at your club or referee association, please get in touch.

Clubs

Our workshops for clubs provide an opportunity for clubs to develop their understanding of racism and discuss issues that are prevalent in football at all levels so that clubs are well equipped to take positive action.

The workshop is practical and engaging and provides further support for clubs to promote the anti-racism message, challenge discrimination and to create an inclusive anti-racist environment for all.

Further support and resources can be provided to develop the clubs’ policies and procedures to ensure that the club develops an ethos of inclusivity and anti-racist environment free from discrimination.

Players

Our players Educational Workshop is designed specifically for players across academy and grassroots levels. The workshops are tailored to different age ranges and can be delivered to mini, junior, youth and senior teams in clubs across Wales. The workshops focus on the difference between being non-racist and anti-racist, the importance of being anti-racist, using inclusive terminology, stereotypes and how these can be created as well as providing an effective challenge toolkit for players.

In addition to the core workshop aims the player workshop includes a discussion with players about their role and responsibilities as a player, the importance of representing themselves and the club in the correct manner and the consequences of any racist actions on their career. There will also be discussion around correct and incorrect use of social media.

Coaches

The Coach Educational Workshop is designed specifically for coaches working at all levels of the game.

The sessions include discussions with coaches about their role and responsibilities as a coach and role model, along with various real life scenarios examples within the game they might experience and how they can respond to and deal with these situations.

The workshop provides further support and resources of activities for coaches to use to educate players about racism and terminology.

Referees / Officials

In addition to the core workshop aims the referee workshop includes interactive discussion-based activities that provide support on how to recognise, respond to a racist incident and how they can report any issues that they come across via the correct reporting procedures in Wales.
