The Soccer Aid for Unicef Playground Challenge is back … and we need your school on the team! At Soccer Aid for Unicef, we’re on a mission to get one million school children moving in June 2019. Is your school on the team? Sign your school up now.

Play. Fundraise. Change lives.

The idea is simple – team up with your pupils, design an obstacle course that you will take on together and fundraise to help children in danger in June 2019.

Help children around the world grow up healthy and happy, so they are able simply to play. Just like children should.

The kids loved it so much. It really gets pupils thinking about how other children around the world are not able to have the childhood they deserve, simply because they don’t have enough water, food or medicine. Our pupils are so lucky to have the chance to learn and play in a safe environment. – Caroline Saunders, Assistant Principal at The Regis School

A game for stars on and off the pitch

“It’s very special to come back to my old school, see all my old teachers and it’s great to come and support Unicef… We’ve had a great day and hopefully, many more schools can do it!”
