The captains of the Premier League teams have decided to preserve the tradition of kneeling before the next matches of the 2026/27 season. According to the Daily Mail, the promotion is planned to be held two days during the championship.

The gesture became widely celebrated in English football after the death of George Floyd in the United States. In the spring of 2022, Premier League clubs and footballers were expected to carry out a campaign before the skin game. Kneeling has been removed for special tours dedicated to the fight against racism.

Last season, members of the Premier League teams stood on one knee for two days during the Great Britain celebration of the Black History Month. It appears that a similar format will continue in the 2026/27 season.

At the same time, in the Women's SuperLease of the past, most teams did not support the promotion during the hour of daily matches. The reason for the debate was the effectiveness and impact of the increase in the number of racist incidents in football.
