Support with Discrimination
Football is inclusive (for everyone to enjoy).
Discrimination is when someone is treated negatively because of a certain characteristic. One example that you might have heard of is racism (treating someone negatively because of their race). It could also be treating someone negatively because of their religion, age, sex (gender) or a number of other things.
Discrimination is not acceptable and has no place in football.
If you think you see discrimination, you should report it.
You can find out more about this, including the different types of discrimination and how to report it, by clicking the button below.
If you have a problem or feel unsafe there are a number of different people who you can go to for help.
1. A parent, a coach, or any adult that you trust
If there is an adult that you trust, you can tell them any problems that you are having. You can also show them the contact details below so they know other people who can help.
2. Your Club Welfare Officer
Your football team has a Club Welfare Officer who is trained to help keep all children in the club safe and make sure that you are enjoying your football with the club. If you have any problems, you can go to them and they will help. If you don't know who this person is, you can find out by asking a parent, a coach or manager, or anyone else involved in the club.
