  10. Reporting Discrimination: • We will work together with the football family and other organisations we support, to encourage the reporting of discrimination and hate crimes at all levels of the game.

  11. Monitoring & Evaluation: • We have identified clear sets of actions for The FA’s Senior Management team • We will have a targeted approach towards monitoring and developing good practice case models that can influence change and attitude.
