"The Paralympics are one of the most powerful symbols that there are no limits to top performance. Inclusion should never be a project, but rather a lived conviction, which is why it is important to FC Bayern to support the city of Munich in its bid for the Games."
"Inclusion is an integral part of our values. You can see that every matchday, for example, when our players present their names for people with hearing impairments during the team line-up. Supporting the DAFL is another clear sign for us that football belongs to everyone."
FC Bayern Munich lights up its Allianz Arena in Italy's colors to support the Paralympic Games in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, emphasizing inclusion as a core value. Club president Herbert Hainer states that inclusion should be a lived conviction, not merely a project. Bayern actively supports Munich's bid to host the 2026 Olympic and Paralympic Games, with prominent figures including Uli Hoeneß, Manuel Neuer, Giulia Gwinn, and Andreas Obst campaigning for the city. The club demonstrates commitment to inclusion through various initiatives, including donations to the German Amputee Football League and accessibility measures like name presentations for hearing-impaired individuals during team line-ups.
