Kick It Out has called for a united approach to tackle discrimination and under-representation in English football.

The anti-discrimination charity launched its new ‘Football United’ five-year strategy at an event in London on Thursday.

The targets Kick It Out has set include making all supporters feel welcome regardless of sex, ethnicity, sexuality or religion, boosting representation of South Asian players in the men’s game and of black, Asian and mixed heritage players in the women’s game.

It wants to drive greater representation too among match officials and in football coaching and leadership positions. According to recent workforce diversity data (FA Rule N), many club workforces do not reflect local communities from a gender, ethnicity, LGBTQ+ or disability perspective.
