Insane? EURO 2020 Mascot Revealed
Mar 25, 2019, by Chris
The official mascot for UEFA EURO 2020 has been unveiled during a spectacular pre-match display in Amsterdam. It is called Meet Skillzy, a larger-than-life character inspired by freestyling, street and panna culture.
Accompanied by two of the world's leading freestylers, Liv Cooke and Tobias Becs, Skillzy showed off a few moves to the 55,000 crowd ahead of the European Qualifier between the Netherlands and Germany.
"Being able to take the beauty of freestyling, street football and panna to football fans all over Europe is a really special opportunity," says Liv, an English former freestyle world champion and Together #WePlayStrong ambassador. Whether it's playing in the park or on the world stage, whether it is football or freestyling, it's about expressing yourself with the ball at your feet."
Skillzy - UEFA EURO 2020 Mascot
With UEFA having unveiled the mascot for the EURO 2020, people from all 12 UEFA EURO 2020 host nations are now invited to show what they can do: upload a video of skills that best represent your host city and become a local UEFA EURO 2020 freestyler.
Liv and Tobias will shortlist the entries for a public vote when two people (one male, one female) will be chosen for each of the host cities: Amsterdam, Baku, Bilbao, Bucharest, Budapest, Copenhagen, Dublin, Glasgow, London, Munich, Rome and Saint Petersburg. The 24 winners will become local UEFA EURO 2020 Freestylers and will get the chance to display their skills at selected events.
"UEFA EURO 2020 will be one of the biggest sporting events in history, and the involvement of freestyle culture will only enhance it as a spectacle and make sure there is something for everyone," says Tobias, a former European champion from Norway. "This feels like a really exciting crossover moment."

No More Score: In-House Saint Vincent and the Grenadines 2026 Kits Released
The Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Football Federation (SVGFF) has officially unveiled the new 2026 kit collection for the national team, nicknamed Vincy Heat. Marking a departure from previous technical sponsor Score, who had supplied the Caribbean side since 2021, the federation has opted to design and produce the new jerseys entirely in-house under the campaign moniker "Ours."
The launch showcases three distinct colorways directly inspired by the country's national flag: vibrant yellow, royal blue, and emerald green. All three kits share a unified template featuring a sharp V-neck collar, subtle contrast piping along the shoulders, and matching ribbed cuffs. Across the front and sleeves, each jersey incorporates a dynamic diagonal brushstroke graphic filled with repeating micro-motifs representing the three diamonds from the flag.
Contrasting details complete the look across the range, with royal blue trim and numbering adorning the primary yellow shirt, while bright yellow accents finish off the blue and green editions. Underpinned by slogans such as "Our Nation. Our Culture. Our Team" and "Wherever we go, we carry home," the new collection puts a strong emphasis on national identity as the team moves forward with its own branded apparel.
