We are excited to kick off Season 2 of the Football For Future x Common Goal Champions Community! This game-changing initiative is back, supporting footballers to lead on climate action. Today, we’re excited to announce our 28-player lineup — a squad of changemakers ready to inspire change, and leave a lasting legacy.

As the excitement of the Euros and the Olympics began to fade, a lesser-known but equally significant tournament kicked off in the Himalayas: the Ladakh Climate Cup. From September 1st to 7th 2024, six football clubs gathered in Leh for the world’s only climate-focused football tournament, hosted over 11,000 feet above sea level. But the Climate Cup is about more than just a game – it’s a call for urgent climate action in South Asia, bringing attention to environmental challenges across India and beyond.

We are proud to congratulate our Co-Founder Elliot Arthur-Worsop for his recognition in ‘VERSUS 50’, as one of the 50 individuals shaping the future of football culture.

We’re delighted to announce that ‘The Sofie Project’, run in collaboration with Common Goal, has been nominated for ‘Campaign of the Year’ at the British Association for Sustainable Sport (BASIS) Awards!

We were excited to see familiar faces shortlisted for this year’s BBC Green Sport Awards! Congratulations to Jessie Fleming and Sofie Junge Pedersen on their nominations for 'World Athlete of the Year' and to David Wheeler for 'Athlete of the Year.'
