STEP 4: TAKE THE CAMPAIGN FURTHER!

Do you want to go beyond making a statement and actions to your words? Here are a few ways you can take the campaign even further.

• Make your club more inclusive. Use and distribute our Grassroots toolkit on how to handle racist and discriminatory incidents. The toolkit includes multiple guidelines on how to make your club more diverse and inclusive. For example, including an anti-discrimination paragraph in your Code of Conduct. Download the toolkit here (available soon) and the template for the Code of Conduct here (available soon).
• Deliver our educational programme #DiversityWins. You can choose to deliver either the full, or integrate parts of the programme into your clubs existing programmes. For instance, as a club you can use the educational programme during holiday football camps or during other football or educational related events. You can download the materials for free here.
