World Cup Draw Youth Football Conference 04 Futsal Referees 1.0 6 Including World Cup draw 03 Youth Football Conference 04 Futsal referees’ seminar 08 HatTrick education programme 10 No 45 – January 2006 Message from the UEFA President If I had to choose just one highlight from the European football competitions in 2005, I would have no hesitation whatsoever in selecting the UEFA Champions League final between Liverpool FC and AC Milan played in Istanbul in May. Even though penalty kicks are a cruel and brutal way to lose, this match encapsulated everything that makes football so exciting for millions of spectators and TV viewers: high-quality technique, plenty of goals, a sensational comeback and players giving absolutely everything to win, all in a perfect spirit of fair play despite the incredible tension. In many ways, this 50th final of the European champion clubs’ com- petition extended far beyond the limits of football and can serve as a reference point for us all on at least three levels: firstly, Liverpool’s comeback demons- trated the desire never to give up and to keep believing despite suffering setbacks; meanwhile, the Italian players showed firstly the ability to set about a task with tremendous determination right from the off, and then, after Liverpool had equalised, the capacity to recover from a state of turmoil and move forward again, even though they eventually lost. However, the final in Istanbul also illustrated that, even when the stakes are incredibly high, players UEFA can display a sporting attitude and respect for their opponents and that, in such circumstances, football is the biggest winner of all. Even when This message is not meant to be a moral lesson, but simply a look the stakes are back at one of the key moments of the year just gone and a reminder that “ football is without doubt much more than just an economic activity and fully incredibly high, merits the efforts put in to defend its interests. players can It is an opportunity for me to thank everyone who, during 2005, has given willingly of their time and energy to serving football, not just on the display a sporting pitch but also in all different kinds of football-related meetings and events. I am particularly grateful to my colleagues in the Executive Committee, the attitude and members of the UEFA committees and panels and everyone who, within respect for their the national associations, leagues, clubs and other bodies, has contributed to the success of football again this year. opponents. Thanks to them, football is thriving but – as the Istanbul final also taught us – nothing is ever definitely secure and, unfortunately, 2005 has not been without its examples of violence, racism and greed, to mention just ” a few of the scourges that afflict society and are consequently mirrored in football. However, I do not wish to end on a negative note. I would prefer to underline some of the positive achievements of 2005, such as the broadening of dialogue to all levels – European Union, associations, professional leagues, FIFPro and clubs; the development of our HatTrick assistance programme, including the inauguration of numerous mini-pitches all over Europe; and the summer of grassroots football, when countless young people were able to experience the joys of engaging in our sport. My wish for 2006 is that football will bring you many more such moments of happiness.

Fotbollen av idag är inte någon sorglös lek utan big business” En studie av svenska ledande fotbollstidningars syn på det svenska fotbollslandslaget och professionaliseringen, 1958-2015 Författare: Andreas Lindh & Joel Mattsson Handledare: Hans Hägerdal Examinator: Ulla Rosén Termin: HT2016 Ämne: Historia Nivå: Grundnivå Kurskod: 2HIÄ2E Abstrakt Title: "Ladies and gentlemen! Football of today is not a carefree game but big business" - A study of Swedish leading football journals view of the Swedish national football team and the professionalization 1958-2015 In this study we’ve followed the Swedish national team in football from 1958, nine years before the removal of the Swedish amateurisms, throughout the professionalism until 2015. The purpose has been too look at the leading football and sports journals to compare the view of the Swedish national teams in football during the world cup years of 1958, 1974, 1994 and the qualification too the UEFA Euro 2016 which was played in 2015. We have also looked into the view of the professionalization of Swedish football which has turned into a more international professionalization during the last twenty years. The football and sports journals we’ve study is Idrottsbladet (1958 & 1974), Svensk fotbolltidning (1974 & 1994), Goal (1994 & 2015) and Offside (2015). We have an analysis with focus on the professionalisms progress. The analysis is based on three views, philosophy, organization and economics. The philosophy has changed from being a game too become a spectacle, the organization has gone from volunteering too wage work and professionalism too interacting agents. In the economics football has gone from having its focus on the results of the sport to the result of the profit, to being about money by spectacle.

  • CSR in Swedish Football
    CSR in Swedish football A multiple case study of four clubs in Allsvenskan By: Lina Nilsson 2018-10-09 Supervisors: Marcus Box, Lars Vigerland and Erik Borg Södertörn University | School of Social Sciences Master Thesis 30 Credits Business Administration | Spring term 2018 ABSTRACT The question of companies’ social responsibility taking, called Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), has been widely debated in research since the 1900s. However, the research connecting CSR to sport was not started until the beginning of the 2000s, meaning that there are still many gaps in sport research that has to be filled. One such gap is research on CSR in a Swedish football context. Accordingly, the purpose of the study was firstly to examine how and why Swedish football clubs – organised as non-profit associations or sports corporations – work with CSR, and secondly whether or not there was a difference in the CSR work of the two organisational forms. A multiple case study of four clubs in Allsvenskan was carried out, examining the CSR work – meaning the CSR concept and activities, the motives for engaging in CSR and the role of the stakeholders – in detail. In addition, the CSR actions of all clubs of Allsvenskan were briefly investigated. The findings of the study showed that the four clubs of the multiple case study had focused their CSR concepts in different directions and performed different activities. As a consequence, they had developed different competences and competitive advantages. Furthermore, the findings suggested that the motives for engaging in CSR were a social agenda, pressure from stakeholders and financial motives.

The years since have largely been barren, with no title at any since a side including Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Sol Campbell and Robbie Fowler triumphed on home soil in the European U18 Championship in 1993. This time round hopes are high following wins against Finland (2-1) and Spain (2-0), coupled with a 1-1 draw against Germany, taking Stuart Pearce's side through as Group B winners to face Sweden. They will hope to fare better than two years ago when they went out to the Dutch hosts after a 32-penalty shoot-out. • Sweden, meanwhile, have never won a UEFA men's competition, losing to Italy 2-1 on aggregate over two legs off the 1992 U21 final. The Scandinavian side last reached this stage five years ago, losing on penalties to Serbia and Montenegro in Oberhausen after a 1-1 draw. A measure of revenge was exacted on Matchday 3 of this competition, a 3-1 win against Serbia in Malmo taking the hosts into the last four as Group A runners-up following a 5-1 win against Belarus and 2-1 defeat by Italy.

Il Premio, presieduto da Bruno Pizzul, si avvale del contributo dell’Amministrazione Comunale e dell’appassionato impegno dei componenti il Comitato Promotore, i quali comprendono prestigiosi nomi di aziende, imprenditori, commercianti e professionisti. Obiettivo del premio non è solo quello di offrire un riconoscimento ai campioni dello sport, ma anche quello di evidenziare il troppo spesso oscuro lavoro di quegli atleti che, pur non praticando una disciplina sportiva popolare, hanno dedicato la loro vita e il loro entusiasmo agli sport minori, nobilitandone il ruolo e favorendone la diffusione. Il «Torretta» non si ferma allo sport perché premia, inoltre, persone che si sono distinte nella cultura, nelle professioni, nella solidarietà, per la qualità, la creatività, la capacità innovativa, l’umanità e il senso civico della loro opera. Anche per questo la manifestazione ha avuto ampi riconoscimenti a tutti i livelli istituzionali, a partire dalla Presidenza della Repubblica. Nell’ambito della manifestazione verrà assegnato il Trofeo «Atleta dell’Anno», in collaborazione con Telelombardia, Antenna 3.
