GET READY FOR THE #MORETHANFOOTBALL ACTION WEEKS
EFDN will host an online preparation webinar on the 24th of February, 11am – 12noon (CET)Professional clubs, leagues and FAs and other football organisations can register here.
The 2022 #Morethanfootball Action Weeks start on the 21st of March and run until the 14th of April. The #Morethanfootball Action Weeks are an EFDN initiative and the biggest campaign on community and social responsibility in European football. Previously, 108 football organisations from 30 countries participated, and together we have reached more than 40 million people online and created more than 67 million impressions on social media. Big Hearts Community Trust, the foundation of Heart of Midlothian, won last year’s edition of the More than Football Award.
The aim of the webinar is to inform all interested organisations on the campaign, social media challenges, resources and the More than Football Award. The goal of the More than Football Award is to honour the best social initiatives in Europe delivered by a European club, league or FA by celebrating the work they do on and off-pitch on a local, national and international levels.
