As you should know the Football Supporters’ Federation rejects all forms of violence be they verbal or physical. With that in mind we thought it worth spreading news of the European Football Supporters Award 2011 around our members. Especially as there’s a €6,000 prize to go with it.
The award recognises those groups that "promote friendliness in the grandstands, fraternisation with the fans of other teams, respect for opponents and referees, refusing to take part in any displays of racism or xenophobia, and condemning all acts of physical and verbal violence."
The deadline for applications is 31st October 2011.
