Amputee Football Scotland and Arsenal

Let’s Build Goals, Together.

Over the past two years our Football for Life initiative has partnered with small volunteer organizations to help implement and install over a dozen sports fields in Ukraine, with 20 more on the way. During that time we began working with the amputee football community to develop specialized training and playing facilities, with the hope of building a field in Ukraine in 2025. On April 18th we will co-host a tournament in the UK and when the final whistle blows the pitch, goals and equipment will be redeployed in Ukraine.


These concept designs were produced by students of the School of Architecture and Planning at the University of Buffalo. On April 18th, designs will be presented at the 2025 Amputee Football Tournament in the UK and to our partners and the amputee athlete community in Ukraine.
