Kick It Out is football’s leading organisation tackling discrimination and promoting equality across the game. For more than 30 years, it has worked with players, clubs, leagues and communities to ensure football is a place where everyone belongs.
As part of Gift of Kit’s partnership with Kick It Out, this hub provides grassroots teams with practical resources to help create positive, inclusive environments for players, coaches and volunteers.
Explore the materials below to learn more about Kick It Out, understand how to challenge discrimination in football, and help build a culture of respect within your club.
It is discrimination, in all its forms. Racism. Sexism. Homophobia. Transphobia. Kick It Out are here to put an end to all forms of discrimination within sport.
At the Kick It Out Academy, you can learn the facts about Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. It can be hard to know where to start with issues like racism, misogyny and antisemitism. So start here, and use our quick, no-nonsense courses to learn everything you need to kick discrimination out of our sport.
If you’ve seen discrimination in football – online or at a grassroots, non-league or professional game – don’t turn away. Report it to us so we can get the right people involved and support everyone affected.
