Abstract

The Danish Football Association (DFA) has launched a football-based activity for health called Football Fitness. It is targeting adults playing in voluntary organised, non-profit and municipally subsidised football clubs, and is hugely popular among women. But what is the concept? Dr. Søren Bennike from the University of Copenhagen explains, and also says that the concept is making a positive contribution to local clubs, but will take time to implement.
