Art installations depicting the iconic bucket hats worn by Welsh football fans, which will light up at night, will be located across the country during this winter’s World Cup.
Addressing a meeting of Cardiff Breakfast Club chief executive of the Football Association of Wales (FAW), Noel Mooney, said the that the installations, which will light up in the colours of yellow, green and red, will appear at five locations across Wales for the tournament in Qatar which starts in November, after the men’s national side qualified for the World Cup for the first time since 1958.
He said that the FAW is aiming to become not only the most sustainable and best run football association in the world, but the best sporting body on the planet - with a huge focus on supporting mental health and wellness so it becomes known as what he described as the “association of wellness.”
