IFCPF celebrates International Day of Persons with Disabilities

Video

Today marks the International day of persons with disabilities (UN) where we come together as an organisation to celebrate our players, coaches, referees, physios, governing bodies, clubs, schools and parents who support our members within Cerebral Palsy football and disability sport.

This year the UN International day of persons with disabilities campaign revolves around, 'Building Back Better: toward a disability-inclusive, accessible and sustainable post COVID-19 World'.

We hope you all take a moment today to remember how far we've come, what we have achieved together within our sport, but also how far we have to go.

Watch our IFCPF International day of persons with disabilities video featuring Anne Doe (IFCPF member at Large Africa), Verha Mwethya (IFCPF Female Ambassador Africa), Leah Glaser (IFCPF Female Ambassador Americas), Nicole Christodoulou (IFCPF Female Ambassador), Alonso Baier Villarroel (IFCPF Youth Ambassador Americas), Bryan Kilpatrick-Elliot (IFCPF Youth Ambassador Europe), Jude Aston (IFCPF Football Reporter), Igor Monteiro (IFCPF Referee), Derek Malone (IFCPF Medical and Sports Science Manager).
