Haverfordwest County AFC will be showing their support for Show Racism the Red Card’s Month of Action campaign in our fixture against Bala Town at Maes Tegid this Friday.

Both teams will wear “Show Racism the Red Card” t-shirts during the warm-up to promote an anti-racism message and demonstrate their stance against racism in sports and society.

Show Racism the Red Card is a charity that aims to combat racism by empowering role models, including footballers, to present an anti-racist message to young people and others.

The charity acknowledges that racism changes, as do the experiences of Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic communities in the UK. The message and activities, therefore, need to be able to respond to such changes as and when appropriate.

They achieve this through:

– Producing and delivering educational resources

– Developing activities to encourage people, including young people, to challenge racism

– Challenging racism in the game of football and other sports.

During October, football clubs across Wales show their support for Show Racism the Red Card by delivering a match-day action demonstrating their stance on eradicating racism from the beautiful game. These actions act as a vehicle to deliver an anti-racism message to the community through the power of sport.

Please support the players in saying NO to racism. If you witness racism, report it to the steward or club official.

Further details about the campaign and how you and your club can be part of the Month of Action can be found by visiting the website, theredcard.org or by contacting tom@theredcardwales.org.
