About the Project

ReScore is a two-year European initiative aimed at re-imagining the score in European grassroots football by embedding sustainability and circular economy thinking into the everyday reality of clubs. The project works with coaches, managers and young athletes to map current practices, identify gaps and introduce the CircuLite Circular Value Model as a practical framework for greener, more resilient club operations. Through training programmes, talent development, community engagement and digital learning tools, ReScore supports clubs in strengthening their competitiveness while promoting sustainable behaviours across their wider communities.
