The captains of the clubs in the premier league have decided to stop taking a knee before every match.
The Black Lives Matter movement has been supported by the players and staff who have taken a knee prior to the game.
The number of times a player takes a knee before a game will be limited by the league.
Ahead of the new season, the captains of the league's clubs have reiterated their commitment to fighting discrimination.
The players will use specific moments during the campaign to take the knee to amplify the message that racism has no place in football or society.
The League's No Room for Racism Action Plan will be used to raise anti-racism messaging as a result of the players' decision.
During the opening match round of the season, players will take the knee, followed by dedicated No Room for Racism match rounds in October and March, Boxing Day, and The FA Cup and EFL Cup finals.
The captains of the league decided to take the knee during the season in order to highlight their unity against all forms of racism.
We are committed to bringing about an inclusive society with respect and equal opportunities for everyone.
