Join our 5-a-side football tournament
This Hate Crime Awareness Week, we’re hosting a 5-a-side football tournament where we'll play teams from the University of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan University, University of Greater Manchester, University Academy 92, and University Campus of Football Business. It’s happening on Wednesday 4 February 12:00–15:00 at the 3G Pitch on Peel Park Campus.
The sign up form is now closed but if you'd like to play, you can join the wait list and you'll be contacted if a space becomes available. You can also get involved by coming down to browse our stalls, win prizes and cheer on your fellow students.
Join the academy
Kick It Out are on a mission to tackle all forms of discrimination in football. Understanding social issues and the part they play in sports and other areas can be difficult. If you’re not sure where to start or want to deepen your understanding, join The Academy. This free platform allows you to take courses from allyship to race and religion, so you’ll be ready to help kick out discrimination.
Reporting hate crime and incidents
If you experience or witness incidents of hate on campus, let us know via our informal reporting system, Report It. This ensures we know what’s happening on campus and within our University community, so we can do something about it and support you. You can report anonymously.
Kick It Out also have their own separate reporting system specifically for discrimination in football. If you see this discrimination outside university on a pitch, in a stadium or online, you can report it to Kick It Out. They can get the right people involved and support everyone affected.
