Since 2022, the Football Black List Regional Celebrations have taken place across the country in Bristol, Birmingham, Leicester, Liverpool, London and Manchester, with support from The Football Association.
At the heart of each event is a commitment to recognising the people making a real difference through football. By going directly into communities, the Football Black List shines a light on local changemakers, celebrating their achievements and sharing the stories behind their impact.
Delivered in partnership with County FAs, grassroots organisations and community leaders, the Regional Celebrations bring people together to recognise those driving positive change both on and off the pitch.
Alongside the celebrations, each event creates space for meaningful conversation, with speakers from across the game sharing their journeys, experiences and insights to help inspire the next generation and open up pathways into football.
We look forward to continuing this journey with The Football Association, celebrating more communities across the UK and recognising those who are making football a more inclusive and representative game for all.
