Football is so much more than a game.
It has a unique ability to positively impact people of all ages and backgrounds – from fans watching in the stands to the millions playing grassroots football, and all those involved in community programmes run by clubs.
Community Captains embody this spirit.
They are the unsung heroes and people who go above and beyond the call of duty week in, week out, to benefit the lives of others.
Thanks to the success of Premier League football, we are able to continue providing unparalleled investment to all levels of the game – which enables clubs and their Community Captains to deliver life-changing community programmes in every part of the country.
