FARE AND FOOTBALL V HOMOPHOBIA Each February, the Fare network teams up with Football v Homophobia to run an international campaign tackling LGBTIQ+ exclusion within sport and wider society. Established in 2010, Football v Homophobia (FvH) challenges discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation, providing support, education and training to promote an inclusive environment in football. Since 2011, Fare and FvH have been joining forces to work across different levels of football and help bring about positive change for LGBTIQ+ communities. Each year in February, groups across Europe and beyond are supported by Fare and FvH by receiving grants to run football-related activities to promote LGTBIQ+ rights during the Football v Homophobia Month of Action. Activities range from educational workshops, roundtables, conferences and football tournaments. 3 Football v Homophobia Month of Action 2021 2.

Versus focused on producing a concise and practical guide for sports journalists and reporters on how to approach subjects related to the LGBTIQ+ community. After research and collaboration with LGBTIQ+ activists, Versus officially launched their media guide for journalists during the FvH month. The guide (in Spanish) is to be used by journalists, so that they can approach and write about issues related to the LGBTIQ+ community without perpetuating homophobic attitudes or gendered stereotypes. The guide can be found here: http://versus. mx/guia.pdf In the build-up to the guide’s launch, Versus teamed up with several players from the Mexican League to tell and share their story through videos and a social media campaign. In one video, Janelly Farias, Mariana Cadena, Fabiola Ibarra and Stephany Mayor discussed being LGBTIQ+ in sports. A second campaign video featuring Bianca Sierra and Bárbara Sandoval centred around the need for more and better representation of the LGBTIQ+ community in sports media, while the final video featuring Ana Gaby Lozada was a direct invitation to reporters to download, use, and share the guide. “We can help to reduce homophobic violence if we dare to tell new stories.” – Ana Gaby Lozada (professional player in Mexico) Meanwhile, DIDESEX focused on reporting homophobia in football. Homophobic abuse in Mexican football is widespread and persistent through the use of the “puto” chant. DIDESEX used the FvH action month as an opportunity to develop a functioning reporting mechanism. As a start, DIDESEX trained volunteers in how to take on a reporting role at matches and they also built a website tailor-made for reporting homophobia in football. A webinar was organised to launch the website and discuss homophobia in football, DIDESEX are committed to continue promote the website and follow up on reported incidents. The website is here. 5 Football v Homophobia Month of Action 2021 In Uganda the ground-breaking Tomorrow Women in Sports organised a campaign to address homophobia, specifically homophobic chants and abuse in football. As well as creating an online campaign, the group organised workshops to address the topic. The Football v Homophobia month of action also saw important work in Europe. In Ukraine, the Klitschko Foundation’s “Football for Everyone” campaign seeks to combat homophobia, transphobia and discrimination by working with physical education teachers in sport and football. The group ran both practical and virtual sessions led by experts in the LGBTIQ+ community, including women football coaches from the Amateur Women’s Football Club NRG, a practicing psychologist from Kyiv Pride NGO, and a sports journalist from the magazine ‘Gender in detail’. The sessions looked at discrimination against the LGBTIQ+ community in football from different perspectives. The participating coaches were tasked with Tomorrow Women in Sports, Uganda. Klitschko Foundation, Ukraine. organising similar sessions for their pupils. Over 400 pupils in different regions of Ukraine have benefited from the tools their teachers received during these training sessions. More information on the campaign and the key outcomes from their sessions here. Over 400 pupils in different Mykola Niga (participant): “I was lucky to become a participant in the Football regions of Ukraine have for Everyone project. In the project, thanks to lectures and practical classes, I changed my view of people of different genders and sexual orientations: I learned to understand people, despite their differences, whereas I previously had benefited from the tools their a different opinion. For myself, I drew the following conclusion from the project: we do not have the right to judge people for how nature created them, but we must all live in harmony and fight against discrimination in society. I want to teachers received during these discuss this topic with my students. I believe that my local project of “Football for everyone” will be the starting point for this.” training sessions. Klitschko Foundation, Ukraine. 6 Football v Homophobia Month of Action 2021 In Poland, a newly created grassroots women’s walking football club joined the FvH month for the first time. Poland has seen growing levels of discrimination against the LGBTIQ+ community in recent years, with some cities introducing LGBTIQ+ free zones. The players of Stars Lodz used their walking football club to make the sport accessible to all and provide a safe place to play. During the FvH month of action they organised open training sessions and actively promoted their club. They reached almost 100 participants with their open sessions. 2021 marks exactly 100 years since the FA banned women’s football in England. To mark this centenary Goal Diggers FC, a London-based grassroots club, created a protest kit to mark this event and celebrate the intersectional stories of the women and non-binary people who pioneered the women’s game. The group hosted an online virtual session ‘For the Love of the Game’ to reveal their kit and a panel discussion with players and campaigners (including goalkeeper Chloe Morgan and Sammy Walker of Soho FC). “The significance of FvH month of action is twofold: Representation and celebration. I think FvH is fabulous for representation on the bigger scale of women’s and men’s football. For example, seeing the pride flag and captains’ pride armbands at the Lionesses match against Northern Ireland carried a strong message that the game is for everyone.

More surprisingly, no athletes were listed among the 300 or so entries, either in a generalist or specific category: perhaps, because of the significance of amateurism as a prevailing ethos in sport until the 1960s.

  • Governance Relationships in Football Between Management and Labour Roitman - Governance Relationships Marston, C
    Building on the two prior CIES governance studies, this is the third FIFA-mandated research analysing governance relationships in football. This book focuses on those Editions CIES between football’s employers (clubs, leagues and even NAs) and its labour force. Based on a sample of forty countries across all six confederations and questionnaires from players’ associations, leagues and national associations, this research surveys and compares the diverse ‘management-labour’ approaches and scenarios in both men and women’s professional football worldwide. GOVERNANCE RELATIONSHIPS The authors place a special focus on players’ associations and highlight the variety of IN FOOTBALL BETWEEN structures found world-wide. The findings here contribute to a better understanding MANAGEMENT AND LABOUR of the systems, models and relationships in place around the globe when it comes to PLAYERS, CLUBS, LEAGUES & NATIONAL ASSOCIATIONS ‘management’ and ‘labour’. This book explores the representation of Kevin Tallec Marston, Camille Boillat & Fernando Roitman players within decision-making structures at club, league and national association level as well as the regulatory contexts and negotiation instruments linking players and management - such as collaborative agreements/MoUs, CBAs, minimum contract requirements and dispute resolution. In addition, this study provides a first ever global exploration of some of the inner workings of players’ associations and an overview of the key issues in professional football from the player’s perspective. The final chapter offers several models and frameworks illustrating the governance relationships between players and management. All three authors work at the International Centre for Sport Studies (CIES). Kevin Tallec Marston earned his PhD in history and works as research fellow and academic projects manager.

Issues of Power in a History of Women’s Football in New Zealand: A Foucauldian Genealogy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Waikato by BARBARA DOUGLAS COX MBE Department of Sport and Leisure Studies School of Education University of Waikato 2010 ABSTRACT In the majority of countries throughout the world, football is a highly popular sport for women and girls and one which continues to grow in playing numbers. According to FIFA, 26 million females were registered as football players in its member countries, an increase of four million players within the past five years (FIFA Big Count, 2006). Despite such popularity of participation, histories of women‟s football „speak‟ of exclusion, struggle and conflict, and thus, the prime question which underpins this study is: “how has women‟s football in New Zealand gone from a position of struggle to a point where the game is perceived as a „normal‟ sporting activity for women and girls?” In order to examine this question, I have used Michel Foucault‟s concept of conducting a „history of the present‟, a genealogical approach which accounts for the “constitution of knowledges, discourses, domains of objects and so on...” (Foucault, 1978, p.
