Grassroots Partnership – The Voice Of Grassroots Football

Kick It Out has been working with Grassroots Football – the voice of grassroots football – to help further spread the messages of equality and inclusion across the amateur level of the sport.

About Grassroots Football

Grassroots Football is an independent, self-funded grassroots organisation that was established in 2013, which is now recognised both nationally and internationally as a leading voice for the amateur game.

Grassroots

“Together we stand shoulder to shoulder with the grassroots family to help improve grassroots football for everyone. Our website is a one-stop resource for anyone involved in grassroots football.”

Reporting

Kick It Out’s reporting app, available for download on iOS or Android, aims to tackle discrimination by allowing users to report any incidents they witness or suffer at any level of football.

Grassroots Football are set to release a reporting app of their own – whilst it doesn’t focus on discrimination, the app seeks to foster a culture of respect and good behaviour in football which is line with the values of Kick It Out.

 

The ‘Grassroots Report It’ app will allow users to report unacceptable behaviour from coaches, spectators, players, parents or anyone associated with the amateur game.

As well as tackling inappropriate conduct in grassroots football, the app also aims to celebrate good behaviour by allowing you to make positive comments too.

The app is available to download on iOS or Android devices.

One-Two Magazine

one-two-magazine

May 2016 edition

Grassroots Football’s official magazine, One-Two, is the organisation’s flagship publication which is released once a month and provides all the latest news, discussion and talking points on all things grassroots.

One-Two, which has also been endorsed by both The Football Association and the Professional Footballers’ Association, regularly features content around Kick It Out’s activities.

"We have a responsibility as players to give something back and I’m really thankful to be part of this organisation because we can do a lot of good."
Jack Butland, 'Next 20' Ambassador
“A big part of my involvement with Kick It Out stems from my strong admiration for the organisation’s commitment to fairness and equality.”
Clive Tyldesley, football commentator
“It was Kick It Out that convinced the people in football that change was possible.”
Greg Dyke, former FA chairman
“I wanted to thank the campaigners at Kick It Out for their work. I know first-hand how Kick It Out can help.”
Yaya Toure, Manchester City midfielder
“It is important for me in my role as a Kick It Out ‘Next 20’ ambassador to teach young people how to handle discrimination and treat people with respect.”
Romelu Lukaku, 'Next 20' Ambassador
“It is a massive honour for me to be an ambassador for such a great organisation. I think they do great work on and off the field.”
Toni Duggan, 'Next 20' Ambassador
"It really helped me to see that other professional sports people were acknowledging their sexuality. I read about John Amaechi, Gareth Thomas and Tom Daley. They weren't footballers but the fact that they went public gave me the feeling that I was not alone."
Thomas Hitzlsperger, former Aston Villa midfielder
"There was no conflict between religion and the fact that I wanted to play football. I was brought up correctly and in the right way and my parents are very proud of the fact that I am a professional footballer."
Sadio Mané, Liverpool winger
“I think it’s important to share success stories and realise that there are women operating in the game. If it’s something you want to do, you can do it.”
Ffion Eade, Hampshire FA referee
"I've had loads of negative comments from men, especially growing up. It's just boring and old. Times have changed, and they continue to change. Women play football, and they're good at it, and have been for a number of years.”
Kelly Smith, England Women's record goalscorer
"Despite the progress, stereotypes still exist in football and until that is broken down it will be extremely difficult for a woman to manage a top level men's team."
Rachel Yankey, former Arsenal Ladies forward
"There’s no hiding that there is sexism in sport. We have a lack of women right across all levels of management, playing and coaching. It shows the closed nature of sport in general and this includes the media. It’s an indictment of sport as a whole."
Rimla Akhtar, Kick It Out trustee and Chair of the Muslim Women’s Sports Foundation
“I’m proud to be a supporter of Kick It Out and particularly the work they are doing to combat antisemitism within football.”
Joe Jacobson, Wycombe Wanderers midfielder
"With Kick It Out leading the way football is standing up and fighting against those who preach hatred and intolerance and we at Chelsea are proud to support their work."
Bruce Buck, Chelsea Football Club Chairman
