Kick It Out says it receives a record 1,744 discrimination reports across football during the first year of its Football United strategy.
The reports cover incidents in professional football, grassroots football and online settings, according to the organisation’s update. The figure is presented as a new high for the campaign.
The coverage is consistent across outlets, with the same core details: the record number, the time frame (the first year of Football United) and the breadth of where reports are made. None of the sources highlight specific types of discrimination or individual cases, focusing instead on the overall reporting total and the strategy’s reach.
