The Football Safety Officers Association was formed in 1992 by safety officers for safety officers.
Our aim is to develop safety and crowd management standards within the sports grounds safety industry with a particular emphasis on professional football.
Since 1992 we have worked with football’s governing bodies, national and local government agencies and partners to improve standards of safety, develop safety officer and stewarding competencies and introduce good practice procedures.
Membership of the FSOA is open to safety officers, deputy and assistant safety officers as well as colleagues with particular safety management roles within football. We also welcome applications from individuals and organisations whose roles, products and services complement our industry or who hold similar roles in other sports.
Please visit our History section to learn a great deal more about us and feel free to contact Chris Patzelt, General Secretary, if you would like to discuss the benefits that membership could provide.
