== Football v Homphobia ==
FvH is an international initiative opposing homophobia in football. We are the Football Association’s chosen campaign to tackle homophobia in grassroots football in England, and the only specifically created campaign to tackle this issue at all levels of the game, all around the world. Almost 2 out every 3 football fans believe football would be �a better sport if anti-gay abuse was eradicated, and 1 out of 2 lesbian, gay and bisexual fans feel it effects their participation in the sport. �We want football to take a clear stand against homophobia so that everyone can enjoy the beautiful game and so that football leads the way in removing discrimination and prejudice based on gender identity and sexual orientation. Find out about what we are doing to tackle these issues and about the simple things you can do to make a difference.
