“Without doubt the trajectory of this game can only be even brighter and, together with the Euronics Group and other partners of our programme, we will continue to strive to make an impact on the elite end of the game through our top competitions, but also so that girls across Europe can follow their dreams and play the sport they love.”

The basis of the partnership is the shared belief in the enormous potential of women’s football. For the duration of this four-year commitment, the Euronics Group aims to support the growth of the game by backing UEFA’s plan to cement football as the leading women’s team sport in Europe.

“This partnership is a key milestone for the Euronics Group,” said Hans Carpels, president of Euronics GEIE. “We are excited to activate this UEFA partnership in our local communities with our members, suppliers, and partners, while this will provide an opportunity for us to enhance the ‘beautiful game’ together.”
