Why do athletes on the football field have to lead a child

Because the slogan of the World Football Federation is fair play, that is, fair play, children are innocent, there is no deceit, it is a symbol of fair play, and children are also the hope of the future, so they are brought when they sing the national anthem, and the general league is not brought, only the official matches between the national teams will appear. Because those games are under the control of FIFA.

FIFA stipulates that in order to make the concept of football deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, all international A-level football events and some important football matches must bring caddies into the venue, regardless of gender.

As far as I know, the children are selected by the tournament organizers or the home team at the local football school or primary school, and their appearance is to affirm the purity and friendliness of the game. As we all know, children are always innocent and pure in everyone's impression, and they have become a symbol of "friendship first" in sports competitions.

There was no such phenomenon at the Euro '96. It seems that the football match of the 98 World Cup seems to have been arranged like this, and then it has become a ritual used around the world......

Soccer match soccer players bring small children into the stadium because small children represent.

Fairness and purity.

Kindness, friendship.

Signifies the friendship of the two teams.

For the sake of friendship and for the sake of nurturing the next generation of love of football, there is hope.

Give him a kind of outfit.

Because of the FIFA slogan "fair play", that is, fair play. As we all know, children are innocent and pure in everyone's impression and have a heart of gold, so they have become a symbol of "friendship first" in sports competition. In addition, children are also the hope of the future, so they also hold their children when they sing the national anthem during the competition.

In fact, in the general league, there are no children, and only official matches between national teams will lead children to play, because those games are under the jurisdiction of FIFA. FIFA stipulates that in order to make the concept of football deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, all international A-level football events and some important football matches must bring caddies into the venue, regardless of gender.

Generally speaking, the children brought by the football players are selected by the tournament organizer or the home team at the local football school or primary school, and the children appear to affirm the purity and friendliness of the game. "Every child who is held by the hand of the player and walks into the pitch represents a future. ”

Caddie selection rules:

There are also regulations for the selection of caddies, and the only officially recognized partner of FIFA is McDonald's, which has been held for four times since the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, which is called the "FIFA World Cup McDonald's Caddie Selection Campaign".

Usually these caddies are between 6 and 8 years old, and it is said that there have been caddies under the age of 5 in the Bundesliga, but if the star is bringing his own child, there is no age limit.

Football players take a child because FIFA has regulations that all international A-level football games, or some more important football matches, must bring caddies into the stadium, and the innocence of children represents the purest soul and a hopeful future.

FIFA's slogan is "Fair Play", which of course is promoted in all sports. Innocent children are seen as a symbol of fair play. Therefore, in order to make the concept of football a fair and competitive sport more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, FIFA requires that in all international football events and some important football events, players must lead caddies to enter together, regardless of gender.

These caddies may be selected by the tournament organizer or the home team in the tournament at the local soccer school or by other means. Caddies in soccer are different from tennis caddies and golf caddies who take care of the participants' belongings and pick up the ball, and are solely to show that the game is pure and friendly, and will not participate in the game.

Therefore, the participation of caddies in the World Cup football matches is a symbol of "friendship first". At the same time, children are the hope of the future, and when soccer players sing the national anthem, they also mean to convey the concept of fair play to the next generation.

Caddie Selection Criteria:

Due to different events, the selection criteria are also different, take the World Cup caddy selection as an example, the current global selection of World Cup caddies is exclusively sponsored and organized by McDonald's Corporation, which has been officially recognized by FIFA. Since the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, the event has been renamed the "FIFA World Cup McDonald's Caddy Selection Campaign" to select caddies for the World Cup.

After all, there is zero contact with the stars, and the caddie selection criteria are also relatively strict, including nationality, age, health status, etc., and there are some other requirements according to the actual situation, such as: love football, suitable for long-distance travel, etc.

The reasons for playing football with small children are:

1. Caddies represent fairness.

In football, fair play is the goal that people are chasing, and children are the purest people in the world. The players held the children's hands and played together, which was also intended to express the concept of "purity" and "friendliness" of the football game, and also promoted the competitive spirit of fairness and justice in football.

2. The caddie represents hope.

The little caddies are not only the hope of a country, but also the hope of a nation, but also the hope of the whole world, the future of children is full of infinite possibilities, and the future world belongs to the new generation of children after all. In the same way, the future of football will eventually fall on the shoulders of children.

3. Children represent inheritance.

The reason why the development of football lasts for a long time, the main point in the midterm is that the torch has been passed down from generation to generation, and the players have held hands and appeared in front of hundreds of millions of viewers, this kind of "big hands holding small hands" has not only passed on the strength, but also passed the warmth, on the field, the little ball boys can feel the charm of football, and can also have zero contact with the stars, which also represents the inheritance of football culture.

Many stars have been caddies when they were young, and Lionel Messi, the winner of the Ballon d'Or and the Argentine international, used to be a caddy.

Selection criteria for caddies:

At present, the global selection of World Cup caddies is exclusively sponsored and organized by McDonald's Corporation, which has been officially recognized by FIFA. Beginning with the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, the event was renamed the "FIFA World Cup McDonald's Caddy Selection Campaign" (McDonald).'s player escort program）。

It has been held for the third time in China. In the future, the event will continue to be held in China during the World Cup year.

It is understood that the 2014 Brazil World Cup in China caddie selection activities from March 19 to April 20, nationwide 6 10-year-old, football-loving children (male and female) can be accompanied by parents, in the special activities ** to submit registration information and entries, to participate in the netizen voting and expert review combined with the network evaluation.

The selection is divided into four divisions: North China, South China, East China and Central China, and the top 10 winners in each region will enter the final regional finals in Changsha, Shenzhen, Beijing and Shanghai. The six lucky ball boys who won will travel to Brazil for the World Cup ceremony.
