Don’t X The Line CIC continued to build strong relationships within our communities, continuing with our projects which this year included a football tournament supported by Everton FC in the Community, football ambassador and ex-player Graham Stewart attending our event.The football tournament was a massive success for the campaign with 56 teams participating, and over 1,000 spectators in support, raising the awareness of our campaign by meeting our grassroots family face to face and delivering our message about REFspect/Respect. Our young commentators was setup to give children a voice by recognising their strengths and positive thinking . It has helped our young commentators to develop transferable skills like team work, and communication skills and has helped to build their confidence.The guests in the podcast studio are always very impressed at the way the young people express themselves, collecting positive information about them which make the interviews relaxed and humorous and getting the best out of the guest and young commentators stressing the key work that Don’t X The Line does is to adopt the spirit of inclusion, encouragement, fair play and respect. Once again we are proud to say that we have continued to bring people together within the community. Now our young ambassadors for Don’t X The Line, certainly understand the impact that the campaign is having towards respect and by keeping referees at grassroots level officiating, this has led to some of the youngsters becoming young referees themselves taking up the whistle.The youngsters themselves are making an impact within the game by spreading the message of respect, and fair play on and off the field of play as new ambassadors for Don’t X The Line. DXTL formed Club DXTL FC, to also spread the awareness of the campaign and the two young teams had a very successful year with their kits carrying Don't X The Line/REFspect logos. One of the DXTL young teams won the league respect award and proved that the awareness works.We continue building relationships with referee organisations that are involved at both professional and grassroots level, supporting the key messages we portray throughout grassroots football, encouraging spectators to adopt the spirit of encouragement and fair play. Governing body, The Premier League (PGMOL) match officials, continue to wear Don't X The Line t shirts annually during their warm-ups across premier league grounds around the country on a nominated weekend each season. We continue with our previous successful activities such as the Grassroots Podcast weekender show, DXTLTV on YouTube, our diversity project to train ambassadors from disadvantaged communities and creation of links to official football bodies and other like-minded organisations. We have continued to deliver a workshop which targets parents, managers and coaches and participants emphasising their roles and safeguarding responsibilities that help ensure good behaviour throughout our sport. We continue to offer club photo ID cards once again as a safeguarding aspect and have the contract to do these with Liverpool CFA.Our development of the Referee awareness score cards that we developed for referees to mark the standards of behaviour on and off the field as they officiate have proven a great success with the referees throughout the junior leagues. We continue work with grassroots organisations such as National Children’s Football Alliance, Grassroots Football UK, Football4Football. We have entered partnerships with junior football leagues who will promote the campaign throughout the year. In Professional Football we have support from all governing bodies with an annual partnership continued with the PFA (Professional Footballers Association) who supply the Premier League with our campaign Match Officials T Shirts.
Our stakeholders are principally young people from disadvantaged communities. We also benefit their parents and guardians, football officials and junior football leagues who experience greater respect and acceptable behaviour. We help children with the provision and opportunities locally to our stakeholders when household budgets are still tighter than ever and sports facilities continue to increase prices taking them beyond the reach of many children and young people. We also recognise the impact that youth unemployment locally is having. We are targeting the youth of today to try and give them a voice too and rebuild their trust and confidence by becoming involved with us to help make a difference, and encourage them to participate.Anti-social behaviour is still at a high level, including the pull of gang association, along with the tempting instant rewards for some young people associated with the supply of drugs which still blights our communities, and the awareness of the Don't X The Line campaign still highlights this to the managers of the teams to couter the dangers of becoming involved with gangs. Through junior football leagues, websites, and our online streaming program we will continue to create positive attitudes, encouraging and addressing the tensions between groups and opening pathways into action by once again addressing this to the junior leagues and team managers and football coaches.We will continue to work with the young people and listen to them, giving them a voice on their positive and negative outcomes.We will tailor what we do to the needs of our stakeholders. Our stakeholders then become our ambassadors, not just our trained ambassadors described above but all of our participants, spreading the word to other young people with similar issues. Methods of gathering feedback from our young ambassadors and via our grassroots radio. As well as young footballers and their families, we are still actively increasing our reach building up partnerships with junior football leagues and teams.We are also portraying the message to local businesses who are based within our communities by encouraging them to get involved and build a strong relationship amongst our stake holders.Don't X The Line also recognise that mental health is increasingly becoming a problem amongst children. We will use grassroots football to portray the message to the grassroots football family, to help us to make a difference by giving the children a voice to build their confidence and to improve the wellbeing of the children.We continue to have the support of the following governing bodies and are in regular contact with the following;The PFA, Premier Games Match Officials (PGMOL), Football Association (FA), League Managers Committee, The English Football League (EFL).
