Bronze Age Gold from Wales

Football

Puma rainbow Football v Homophobia football signed by the Cymru Women's football team. Given by FvH to Cardiff Dragons FC for their Football v Homophobia activities in February 2023. Cardiff Dragons subsequently got the ball signed by the Cymru Women's football team, and then raffled it online to raise money for their club.

Unsigned balls such as this one were distributed to grassroots clubs who took part in the Football v Homophobia Months of Action between 2019 and 2022.

Football constructed from hexagonal sections, printed in 6 horizontal rainbow coloured stripes. A black rectangular label featuring the Puma logo and the wods 'FOOTBALL VS HOMOPHOBIA' stretches across the yellow and green stripes across the middle of the ball.
