The Scotland Transplant Active Football aims to play to honour their organ donors and donor families; to increase awareness of the benefits of transplantation, and to inspire the local public to register as organ and tissue donors. We as a team acknowledge through organ donation, we have all received a second chance and will actively promote the importance of more people telling their family and friends they wish to donate, so that families do not refuse to give consent because of a lack of knowledge.
This team is of mixed gender and will have a squad of at least ten players for each competitive event. Participants must have received a life-sustaining solid organ, including stem cell transplant that requires or has required the use of immunosuppressive drug therapy.
We aim to promote active recovery for transplant recipients, though participation in team sport and the opportunity to play Football locally, nationally and internationally, improving fitness and mental health.
