Active Project

Bringing Joy to Communities Around the World through the Power of Sport

About the Project

The Lay’s RePlay project is a global initiative that was brought to life by Lay’s, a PepsiCo brand, in partnership with the UEFA Foundation for Children and Common Goal. By reusing empty chip packets to help create sustainable football pitches, Lay’s RePlay aims to unite communities to tackle relevant community challenges and drive positive outcomes for planet and people around the globe.

How It Works

The Lay’s RePlay project focuses on creating sustainable 5-a-side football pitches using recycled crisp packets, minimising environmental impact while fostering community engagement. Built on two core pillars—sustainable infrastructure and social impact—the project combines eco-friendly construction with multi year football for good programming called RePlay programming programming tailored to address local social challenges including: Mental health, Gender equity, Racial justice, environment and employability.
