 Why was 'More Than a Game' created?

Creating awareness of charity projects through international sports tournaments

Sport & travel should be used to unite people of all colours, creeds and nationalities. 
 
Football, rugby, cricket and the world's other popular team sports bring joy and friendship to fans from hundreds of countries, and also help local communities develop and build better futures through sports-inspired grass-roots projects.

Whilst travelling around the globe, enjoying the planet's major sports tournaments - such as the football and rugby World Cups - we often come across fantastic grass-roots projects. These local projects hugely improve the lives of individuals who have become the victims of poverty, abuse, crime and societal corruption.


More than a game believes that those of us who are priviliged enough to travel around the globe and attend the world's leading sports tournaments should put something back by actively publicising the grass-roots projects we discover along the way.



High quality Blogs, Photos, News & Videos from around the world

This project seeks to create awareness of projects we like by bringing you Blogs, Photos, News and Videos of our travel adventures, and the tournaments we attend across the globe. 

We hope that by appealing to a large audience, who enjoy our writing, images and films, and the latest news from these destinations, we will encourage you to Take an Active Interest in the projects we highlight along the way. 

What you then decide to do is up to you but even if all you do is to click on the links to the Projects We Like & Support, at the very least, that will increase awareness of the good work being undertaken by these organisations and also encourage those that follow More than a game to think about and remember those less fortunate than ourselves.


New beginnings in 2011

After a one-year break, following our Africa project, More than a game was back on the road in South America and New Zealand during 2011:

The aim was to bring you one of the freshest, most original and informative accounts of both the 2011 Copa America and the 2011 Rugby World Cup that you could find anywhere on the Internet.

Plans for 2012

More Than a Game will be bringing you all the latest news in the run up to the 2012 European Football Championships in Poland and Ukraine.
We will also bring you blogs, photos, videos and news from the tournament itself, which we will be attending in June & July of 2012.
Remember to follow our Euro 2012 blog for all the latest news.

The blog was launched in January 2012.
