🟪 #Merky FC Programme Application

#MERKY FC is a partnership between adidas and Stormzy, created to impact change in the football industry.

#Merky FC Football Careers is the first initiative to come from the newly created #Merky FC programme between adidas and Stormzy - that seeks to create opportunities in leadership positions in the football industry, for the Black community.

First established in 2022, with an ambition to affect change across the football community by addressing the lack of diversity off the pitch in football, the initiative provided 15 people with roles within the industry.

In 2023 the initiative expanded with more roles with both adidas and Stormzy bringing together a collective of allies - leading brands, including: adidas, Arsenal FC , EA , Footballco (GOAL), Fulham FC, Guild, Hill & Knowlton, Homeground, IMG, ITV, JOE, KSS, LADbible , Manchester United, #Merky FC, Scottish FA, SI Games, Sky Sports, Soccerbible, TEAM Marketing, The Midnight Club, TransferRoom, Twelfth Man and Wasserman.
