Together with DIF Soldiers' Project from the Danish Sports Confederation and Aalborg Municipality, we are holding a Vete...ran Match on Friday to honor Danish war veterans.
Veteran Match is a national initiative from DIF Soldiers' Project, which spans across the top Danish leagues in football, handball, and ice hockey with the aim of recognizing Danish veterans who have risked their lives for a greater cause.
We will honor their efforts at the 3F Superliga match at Aalborg Portland Park against Lyngby Boldklub on Friday evening in collaboration with DIF Soldiers' Project from the Danish Sports Confederation and Aalborg Municipality.
Danish veterans are thus invited to attend the match for free, where they will also be honored with specially designed player jerseys, flags, stadium announcements, and well-deserved applause.
The specially designed player jerseys, which will be worn by the starting lineup players, are adorned with a Veteran Match logo, and the game-worn jerseys will subsequently be auctioned off. The proceeds from the jersey auction will go towards safe sports communities for veterans with physical and mental injuries - so-called Safe Zones, developed by DIF Soldiers' Project.
We look forward to welcoming the North Jutland veterans to a festive match on Friday evening at 7:00 PM.
