Det begyndte med drømme og udsigt til EM i fodbold på dansk jord – noget som mange i både dansk fodbold og hele Danmark havde set frem til. En folkefest og fællesskabsfølelse der med ét blev erstattet af en global pandemi. Men selv i krisetider er der positive takter. Under normale omstændigheder møder mere end en kvart million danskere op til fodboldtræning, kampe og stævner hver uge året rundt. Børn, unge, voksne, ældre, frivillige, trænere, holdledere og alle midt imellem. Alt det blev for en stund umuligt. Med et unikt samarbejde blev der åbnet for fodbolden igen, og ’Fodboldens Corona-regler’ var en realitet. På tværs af DBU, DBU Bredde, Divisionsfor- eningen, Kvindedivisionsforeningen, i klubber og blandt de frivillige blev der arbejdet hårdt. I fællesskab viste vi, at vi er stærke, ansvarlige og kan skabe løsninger til glæde og gavn for alle. Det var glædeligt, at så mange kunne nyde godt af fodboldens fællesskaber igen. Den usædvanlige situation fik sammenhold og samfundssind til at gå hånd i hånd. Vi har i DBU hele tiden arbejdet for, at folkesundhed kommer før fodbold, men vi glæder os alligevel over, at fodbold har en helt særlig plads hos mange og er en uundværlig sport for de fleste. Både på banen og på stadion. JESPER MØLLER Formand, DBU JAKOB JENSEN Adm. -

Det betyder, at vi i 2019 afholder Fodboldens Kongres for første gang og samtidigt har indført valgperioder og en ny struktur for både DBU’s bestyrelse og mange fagudvalg. Derudover har vi indgået en ny, seksårig landsholdsaftale med Herrelands- holdet efter et langt og ærgerligt forhandlingsforløb med alt for meget kon- flikt.
