Football Stewarding Qualification


The Football Stewarding Qualification is a qualification that all stewards at a designated football ground must gain while they are working. This is to ensure the safety of spectators who come to a football game and to avoid repeats of incidents like Hillsbourgh and the Bradford Fire .

Current issues

Although the FSQ is still accepted as an acceptable qualification to steward at football grounds it has now been replaced by the NVQ Level 2 Spectator Control qualification which all new stewards starting training will work towards.
