Football bodies unite with charity for A-League ‘Erase Racism Round’

The Football Federation Australia (FFA), the Professional Footballers Australia (PFA) and anti-racism charity All Together Now have created a campaign to fight racism and made Round 21 of the Hyundai A-League redubbed the ‘Erase Racism Round’.

The campaign, from the Sydney office of Noble Brands Worldwide, aims to highlight the commitment of the A-League and the players at all clubs to ending racism and aims to promote multiculturalism.

It features a number of players talking about how racism has infiltrated the game and how players should focus on what unites them rather then their differences, and suggests players, officials and fans should band together to tackle racism. The voices of the players are dubbed over by a young girl who appears at the end of the ad.
