What are the badges managers are wearing this weekend? Play Safe Weekend explained

Captains will also be wearing special armbands this weekend

English football is set to once again unite this weekend for the return of the FA’s Play Safe weekend campaign. Led by The FA, the Play Safe campaign aims to focus attention on the vital importance of safeguarding in football and is endorsed by the NSPCC.

The campaign is about putting measures in place to keep children safe and protect them, stressing the importance of every young person having the right to enjoy football. This weekend, every level of English football, including the Premier League, Women’s Super League and EFL will come together to show their support for the campaign.

Captains will be wearing bespoke armbands to mark the weekend, with managers and head coaches sporting pin badges. Last year’s campaign also saw players wearing Play Safe shirts in their pre-match warm-ups.

The FA have given advice over how clubs and leagues can show their support for the campaign, with guidance including posting about the campaign on social media and websites, placing posters in visible areas and encouraging awareness from parents and guardians.
