The EFL has announced a new £1.1m project to attract almost 10,000 new participants into disability football. The Every Player Counts initiative will cover a wide range of disabilities, including wheelchair football, football for visual impairment, learning difficulties, amputees and autism, giving many disabled people access to football for the first time.Supporting the EFL Trusts aim to increase sports participation for all, the landmark project includes funding from the Wembley National Stadium Trust, a figure which represents the WNSTs largest single donation to date and its first England-wide grants programme. Twenty five EFL clubs will be involved in running programmes that are tailored to the specific needs of their local community. Individual programmes will differ from club to club, but the emphasis is on increasing participation, improving health and championing the social benefits of taking part in football.In the first year, the project aims to engage 3,000 new participants across the country, creating 31 new teams and up-skilling 130 coaches. Amputees football will benefit from EFLs Every Player Counts project Mike Evans, the EFL Trust director of operations, said: The new partnership with Wembley National Stadium Trust will enable us to widen the reach of our network even further and use the power of football to make a real difference to peoples lives.
