FC Annecy, which plays in French Ligue 2, has just unveiled a new yellow and blue jersey, “a meaningful initiative highlighting inclusion and celebrating diversity.“
“Featuring the iconic colors of blue and yellow, symbols of Down syndrome, this jersey embodies the club’s commitment to an inclusive society, specifies the French club on its official website. Lhe FC Annecy demonstrates its desire to create an environment where everyone, whatever their differences, is celebrated and integrated. This jersey does not just represent a sporting outfit, it embodies the club’s vision: that of a united community, where acceptance and respect are at the heart of all actions.“
And ten young people with Down syndrome unveiled this new jersey, which will be worn for the first time by the Annecy players once morest Caen next Wednesday.
“This moment will remain engraved in memories, because these young people have become the standard bearers of a unique and meaningful jersey, because until this precise moment, neither the president, nor the players, nor the staff had had the design preview of this particular jersey.“
Part of the profits generated by the sale of this collector’s jersey “will be donated to the FCA Social Club, the endowment fund of FC Annecy, to support partner associations and work in favor of causes linked to Down syndrome.“
