Liverpool FC to auction off match-worn ‘Futuremakers’ shirts
2 months ago
LFC men and womenās teams will swap their regular front of shirt logo for a ‘Futuremakers by Standard Chartered’ design for their upcoming matches at Anfield, and fans will get a chance to bid on the signed match-worn shirts.
āFuturemakers by Standard Charteredā is the main club partnerās global initiative which aims to empower underserved young people around the world and teach them skills to improve their chances of getting a job or starting their own business. For the past five seasons, Liverpool FC has swapped its regular front of shirt logo for the Futuremakers design and donated the match-worn shirts for auction to raise awareness and funds for the programme.
First the women will wear the Futuremakers shirts on Sunday 13 October when they face Manchester City at Anfield. Tickets are still available and priced at just Ā£10 for adults and Ā£4 for juniors. To purchase your tickets, please visit here.
The men will wear the shirts on Sunday 20 October when they play Chelsea at Anfield.
Following each respective match, the shirts will be signed by the players and go up for auction where fans can bid on their chance to win a piece of Redsā history. The auctions will feature up to 11 signed match-worn shirts from both the menās and womenās teams, plus additional match-issued and bench-worn shirts, auctioned off on the fundraising platform, Charity Stars.
This yearās campaign, titled āSome swaps mean moreā, taps into the player ritual of shirt swapping. To support the campaign, LFC and Standard Chartered have created exclusive videos featuring menās and womenās players talking about swapping shirts, what it means to play in the Futuremakers shirt, and more. You can watch both videos below.
