About this Event
More Than A Game: South Asian Inclusion at Wolves is an interactive evening at Molineux Stadium, delivered in partnership with Wolves and The FA, focused on creating greater inclusion, representation and opportunity for South Asian communities across football.
The event will bring together local communities, supporters, young people, families, grassroots football and people already working within the game for an evening of honest conversation, connection and action.
Through an inspiring panel discussion, interactive community conversations and dedicated football pathway opportunities, attendees will have the chance to explore how they can get involved in football — whether through playing, coaching, refereeing, scouting and talent identification, volunteering, working in football or becoming more involved with Wolves and the wider football community.
Importantly, this event isn't simply about discussing underrepresentation. It's about connecting people directly with opportunities and identifying what football can do differently to create lasting change.
Whether you're already passionate about football, interested in building a career within the game, looking for opportunities for yourself or your family, or simply want to help shape a more inclusive future for football, you're welcome to join us.
