The Race to Sustainability Toolkit gives clubs, federations and event organisers practical guidance for greener minifootball activities.
MASCOT has introduced the Race to Sustainability Toolkit, a practical resource designed to help minifootball organisations and wider sport actors plan greener activities. The toolkit supports clubs, federations, organisers and stakeholders who want to make sustainability easier to understand and easier to apply.
The toolkit reflects one of the central messages of MASCOT: behavioural change is more likely when sustainability is visible, practical and connected to real sport environments. Instead of presenting sustainability as an abstract idea, the toolkit translates it into concrete actions that can be used before, during and after sport events.
Through the toolkit, users can explore practical methods for greener sport events and clubs. The resource supports communication with athletes, managers, supporters and local partners, and can be reused by organisations that want to strengthen their environmental approach.
The toolkit is part of MASCOT’s wider package of outputs, which also includes an augmented reality experience, training materials, workshops, evaluation summaries and final dissemination materials. Together, these outputs are intended to help the minifootball community lead by example and share its experience with the broader sport sector.
EMF will continue to promote the toolkit through its website, direct communication with national federations, training activities and dissemination events. The aim is to ensure that the resource remains available, visible and useful beyond the project period.
MASCOT – Minifootball Addressing Sustainability Challenges through Overall Transformation – is coordinated by the European Minifootball Federation (EMF) under the PPPA-SPORT-2023-PEOPLE-PLANET programme, Sport for People and Planet.
