RFEF joins the International Day against LGTBIphobia in Sport with its referees
Professional female referees and assistant referees will wear ribbons with the rainbow pattern during this weekend's matches.
The Royal Spanish Football Federation is once again joining the International Day against LGTBIphobia in sport, which will be celebrated on Wednesday 19 February, through Spanish referees. The federation will once again show its support for the "Love for all colours" campaign, promoted by the F League, which will distribute ribbons with the rainbow pattern to the main and assistant referees, players, coaching staff, fans and supporters at this weekend's matches with the aim of supporting the fight for equality and against discrimination in sport on grounds of sexual orientation or diversity.
Since 2010, this day has been commemorated to raise awareness of the importance of respect and inclusion of people in any sporting discipline. Therefore, aware of the visibility and the promotional power that football has and its strength as an instrument of social change, this campaign is supported in line with Equality and Social Responsibility, clear commitments of the Royal Spanish Football Federation season after season.
