Ramadan is a significant month for Muslims worldwide, during which they observe fasting from dawn until sunset as a means of spiritual reflection, self-discipline, and devotion to God.

Taking proactive steps to support Muslim players and staff observing Ramadan can help to create an environment that promotes inclusivity, respect, and well-being. Through awareness, flexibility, and addressing specific needs, football Clubs, league and match officials can ensure that everyone feels valued and empowered to perform at their best, both on and off the field, during this sacred time.

The purpose of this guide is to enhance your understanding of Ramadan while providing some practical guidelines to enable you to establish a supportive environment for those observing this sacred month.

We need everyone’s support throughout the football family to create an inclusive game, together, we can all make a difference.
