The DFL’s matchday campaign, which has always been organised as part of the “International Weeks Against Racism”, has existed since 2016. This year, however, the diversity of the campaign has been increased and any form of discrimination is to be visibly condemned. The clubs will play with a special ball and the team captains will wear a customised armband with “TOGETHER! Stop Hate. Be a Team.”Ball stands and substitution boards will also be branded accordingly.
TSG Hoffenheim is joining forces with the DFL, the DFL Foundation and the 35 other clubs in German professional football to support this campaign and send out a clear statement against all forms of discrimination.
