FIFA and FIFPRO discuss collaboration to support and further develop women's football
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
During a 90-minute video-conference call, FIFPRO shared its recently published Raising Our Game report, which extensively charts recent progress in the women’s game, as demonstrated at the #fifa Women’s World Cup France 2019™, and makes recommendations to achieve further growth by bolstering the conditions of female players.
Raising Our Game seeks a sustainable path for female players all over the world to benefit from improved standards, allowing them to reach their full potential and play at a competitive level for their club or national team.
As the international representative of professional footballers, FIFPRO is working towards these improvements for female players together with its network of national player unions and the FIFPRO Global Player Council.
During the call, #fifa discussed the impact of the coronavirus on the women’s game, and how the organisation is working with stakeholders to help provide support to the football industry.
Building on the momentum and unprecedented interest from last year's #fifa Women’s World Cup in France, #fifa is currently investing in a range of programmes to grow and develop the women’s game on and off the pitch.
As part of the USD 1 billion that will be invested by #fifa into women’s football between 2019 and 2022, these programmes will aim to develop a range of areas in women’s football, including competitions, capacity-building, governance and leadership, professionalisation and technical development.
Recognising the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the women’s game, #fifa is also currently working on providing further assistance to women’s football as part of an ongoing assessment taking place into the financial impact of the pandemic on the wider football community.
Both #fifa and FIFPRO have agreed to work together to support and strengthen the women’s game during this challenging period and beyond, with ongoing discussions planned to cover many topics, including player conditions, competitions and the women’s international match calendar.
Sarai Bareman, #fifa Chief Women’s Football Officer, said:
"At this difficult time for football and many industries around the world, these discussions with FIFPRO are a positive step towards ensuring that the right support and assistance is available to professional players at all levels of women’s football and to continue ongoing efforts to further grow and develop the women’s game around the world.
"Together with key stakeholders across football, including confederations and member associations, we look forward to continuing discussions with FIFPRO in order to overcome the current challenges women’s football faces.”
Amanda Vandervort, FIFPRO Chief Women’s Football Officer, said:
"We are pleased that we have quickly established a working agenda with #fifa following the publication of Raising Our Game and are enthusiastic to keep working on behalf of players and their union representatives to keep improving the women’s game through a global set of labour standards.
"The coronavirus presents new challenges for women’s football, and the players themselves, and the best way to confront these is with a strong and united vision."
