Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

Celebrating inclusion and diversity for an equal, fair and accessible game where everyone can shine. The FA and County FA’s are here to ensure that everyone who is involved in football has a great experience – regardless of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, ability, disability, faith, or age. Both The FA and the County FA’s are working to ensure everyone has the opportunity to be part of the game. We will all work together on our inclusion priorities over the coming years. These are underpinned by three commitments:

Lead the Change
By actively tackling discrimination on and off the pitch.

Be the Change
By building a diverse workforce from the inside out.

Inspire the Change
By promoting an inclusive and united game which is for all.

Community Coaching

Hampshire FA Foundation works in collaboration with external coaching providers and clubs in order to deliver disability football and sessions for those with long-term health conditions.

Disability Football

There has never been a better time to get involved and play football, whatever your ability level. There are now more opportunities than ever to play football if you have a disability.

Hampshire FA Foundation believe in flexible, inclusive and accessible playing opportunities for everyone, and are committed to delivering a range of opportunities for players with a disability to access football at various levels across the county. Disability football within Hampshire is continually evolving with lots of opportunities available.
