The World’s Team.
One Country, One Vote. One Club.

The Vision

What if football wasn’t just run by the wealthy few. What if the game belonged to the world?

We are building a new kind of club. A truly international club where supporters from every country have a voice, and decisions are made together, not handed down from the top.

Here, every nation counts. One country, one vote. From choosing the manager to shaping the squad to deciding the kit, the direction of the club will be set by its global community online.

Football is the world’s game. It’s time to build the world’s team.

FAQ’S

  • We have decided for now that the club will be based in the UK. The reasons for this are as follows:

    • We created a poll of our initial sign-ups, asking where members would like the club to be based, and the UK was among the most popular choices.

    • The founding team are based here, making it a practical location for kicking off the project.

    • British football is popular globally, which we feel will enable us to appeal to a broader range of fans around the world.

    However, our vision is that the club will truly be a global one, powered by an international online community. We don’t see ourselves as being tied to a specific place, and are open to relocating in the future based on member preferences.

  • Yes! We invite those interested in the project to Join the Movement for free and indicate their preferences.

    All we ask is that you support the project by following/subscribing to our social media channels. This will help us to attract funding and sponsorship down the line.

  • It’s not!

    The club name will be chosen by you. We will be holding a vote where members will decide upon the name of the club, with ‘Our Team’ simply being used as a placeholder for now in the meantime.

  • When it’s time to vote on key club decisions, like choosing a manager, kit design, or otherwise, the process will be managed securely through the Members Area.

    • Secure access: Only registered members (Board Members or Chairman’s Circle) can take part.

    • One country, one vote: Every country represented in Our Team FC gets an equal say. For example, if ten people from Brazil and one person from Kenya take part, Brazil and Kenya each still count for one vote. This way, the club reflects the world, not just where the biggest groups of fans happen to be.

    • Clear instructions: Voting links will be shared directly by email and through our official social media channels, with step-by-step guidance.

    • Transparent results: Once decisions are made, we’ll publish the outcome and what it means for the club.

    • Record of decisions: An archive of past votes will be available so members can follow how the club evolves over time.

  • To our knowledge, this is the first time that anything like this has ever been done.

    We are aiming to unite fans from across every country in the world through football. Apart from being an exciting sporting project, this will be a fascinating social experiment. We are excited about creating a community that unites people across cultures to work towards a common goal.

  • The best way to stay in the loop is by signing up as a member and receiving member updates by email. Otherwise, you can follow us on our social media channels.

  • We’d be happy to provide further info and encourage you to contact us via social media, or by email at info@ourteamfc.com.

Founder’s Story

Our Team was founded by Chris Foley, who is first and foremost - a football fan. 

Growing up in Ireland, Chris has been involved in the sport from a young age, as a player, coach and journalist, with varying degrees of success. 

This aside, Chris’s professional background is in the tech industry, and he’s lived in China, Hong Kong, Thailand and the UK in addition to his homeland. These experiences led him to write a book, Missionaries, published by The Stand Publishing in 2022.

Our Team is a concept which has lived in Chris’s imagination for many years, inspired by a belief that by uniting football fans from across the world, we have the potential to create something truly unique.
