The recreational football project is funded by the EU’s Erasmus Sport + fund. Laurea University of Applied Sciences coordinates the project and in addition to Finland, recreational football is played in England, Spain, France and Denmark (6-0! Recreational Football info, 2019; 6-0! Project info, 2019).

For the purposes of this study, a senior is defined as over 60 years of age, as the target group for f recreational football is 60+ years of age (6-0! Project info, 2019), although the official definition of an older person is over 65 years of age by physically loading the body (Terveyskylä, 2019).

The aim of the project is to promote recreational football activities aimed especially at the senior population through club activities and to produce a permanent, functional way of training for seniors (60+) in the spirit of recreational football (6-0! Project info, 2019). The second goal of the project is to create practical guidelines for people over the age of 60 to make playing football safe and effective. To achieve this, the project will produce material and guidance in five different languages, i.e. for each participating country ((6-0! Project info, 2019; 6-0! Recreational Football info, 2019).
