‘With Hannover 96, we welcome an important partner in our movement,’ explained Marcus Urban, co-founder of Diversero. ‘The support of such a prestigious club shows that the message of ‘Sports Free’ continues to gain strength and find more and more supporters.’
Hannover 96 will now work with Diversero to further spread the values of diversity and acceptance in professional sport. The involvement of a club with such a strong tradition is a significant step in embedding the Sports Free message in the wider football community.
This partnership marks an important milestone for ‘Sports Free’ and shows that the will to change is also anchored in traditional German football. Hannover 96 is thus sending a powerful signal in support of queer athletes and proving that the club stands firmly behind the values of inclusion and equality.
