Poczta Polska: continuation of cooperation with the Polish national football team
Poczta Polska is continuing its successful partnership with the Amp Futbol Disabled Football Association. The new contract with the national team runs until March 31, 2024.
Poczta Polska is a company that welcomes people with disabilities. For many years, it has supported and increased their employment and adapted its facilities to their needs. Recently, the company signed a declaration of a cross-sectoral partnership aimed at increasing the employment of people with disabilities and supporting the development of a socially integrative (inclusive) labor market. In doing so, it has committed to supporting the implementation of several specific goals related to an equal and prejudice-free labor market.
The company has also been collaborating with the Polish National Amputee Football Team for many years. These disabled players are breaking barriers and proving that with determination and hard work, you can achieve your goals and fulfill your dreams. These activities are also consistent with Poczta Polska's strategy and build the company's image as a socially responsible company.
" We are once again committed to supporting the Polish Amp Futbol national team. As a socially responsible company, Poczta Polska wants to support the players in their professional careers. This is a unique and particularly important partnership. Thanks to this, the national team can continue to develop and achieve success on the national and international stage, " says Krzysztof Falkowski, CEO of Poczta Polska.
Under the extended agreement with the national team, Poczta Polska has the right to use the team's image and players in promotional activities. Furthermore, the company can organize events involving Polish amputee football players.
" I'm incredibly pleased that such a major brand as Poczta Polska has decided, not for the first time, to extend its partnership with our national team. It's worth noting that thanks to Poczta Polska and the events we organize together during our tournaments, we've gained many new, fantastic fans. This partnership also allowed an amputee football player to be featured on a postage stamp, which is a unique and historic distinction for our entire sport, " says Mateusz Widłak, President of the Management Board of Amp Futbol Polska.
Amp Futbol Polska has been promoting and developing amputee football, or football for amputees and people with limb disabilities, in Poland and Europe since 2011. The association manages the Polish Amp Futbol national team, as well as the women's Amp Futbol squad, and organizes the PZU Amp Futbol Ekstraklasa, the Polish league for amputee footballers. It also created and develops Futbolowa Banda, Poland's first football academy for children with physical disabilities, and the PZU Futbol Plus project, which helps establish similar academies across Poland.
The most important sporting events in 2023, where the Polish National Amputee Football Team will appear, will be the 2023 Amputee Football Nations League (June 16-18, Krakow) and the Amputee Football Cup (September 16-17, Warsaw).
