Community Against Racism Football Tournament

National Anti-Racism Week of Action in Football - One Game, One Community

18-30 October 2007

The week is a central part of our symbolic work to tackle racism, celebrate diversity and address exclusion.  This week of action is designed to show how football can bring together players from across the whole community.  Various football tournaments will take place during the National Anti Racism week as well as in September and at other times during October, all spreading the message to unite the community to make a stand against racism.  The winners and runners up from the competitions already completed this year are listed below with hundreds of children taking part and spreading the message themselves.
