On Sunday, October 5th, 2025, we honor the Danish veterans in connection with the home match against FC Midtjylland.
Ove...r 40,000 veterans and their families have faced the greatest worries up close and often still struggle with the aftereffects of deployments. Therefore, we encourage everyone on Sunday to pay tribute to the former deployed and their relatives with applause and show our respect at Veteran Match.
F.C. Copenhagen has been at the forefront of Veteran Match, which today is an annual tradition in the 3F Superliga as well as in the top handball and ice hockey leagues.
This Sunday, we have invited 100 veterans to Parken, and as in previous years, our jersey will feature the special "Veteran Match logo."
The colors of the Veteran Match logo embrace the Army, Navy, Air Force, and the Dannebrog in a four-leaf clover, symbolizing the hope for a prosperous future.
Five jerseys will be auctioned, and the money will go toward helping Danish veterans who, unfortunately, have been injured in the performance of their duties.
The DIF Soldiers Project leads the organization of this for the veterans and their relatives in the form of various physical and outdoor activities across different sports.
