Sažetak
When we talk about social development in general, and thus about the development of local communities, there is a significant increase in expectations towards various organizations regarding social responsibility and contribution to community development. Such expectations, in the form of a certain type of participation in development processes, apply also to sports organizations. Professional football clubs historically had a significant connection with their local communities. Projects under global “Football in The Community” program can be found within the vast majority of professional football clubs since the early 1990s, and although the FITC was originally conceived as one of the measures to combat the consequences of hooliganism back in 1975, today it has developed into initiative that has serious ambitions to address various social issues in partnership with the public and private sectors. In this paper, a part of the data obtained by the ethnographic research of the Futsal Dinamo club, conducted within the HORIZON 2020 project CHIEF (Cultural Heritage and Identities of Europe’s Future), will be presented and analyzed. We were interested in which ways the Futsal Dinamo club got involved in the global project Football in the Community, ie how this local indoor soccer club from Zagreb contributes to the development of the local community.
