Photo: Knut Anders Finnset In the semi-final against Rosenborg on Wednesday evening, the captain of Stab\u00e6k women, Melissa Bj\u00e5nes\u00f8y, donned the captain&#8217;s armband with Sami colours.  &#8211; We have tried to be open and inclusive, and tried to shine a light on more than just the football match.  So I am very proud that we are still capturing opportunities like this, says Bj\u00e5nes\u00f8y.  After a 2\u20131 victory against Rosenborg, Stab\u00e6k are now ready for the cup final against Brann on 5 November.  To prevent homophobia Just a few weeks ago, V\u00e5lerenga supporters went out against joking among their own fans.  This is exactly what Stab\u00e6k women&#8217;s team manager Richard Jansen wants to put an end to.  &#8211; I hope we get rid of joint welding and joiking and that type of thing in the stands in Norway, because unfortunately it still is, says Jansen.

Football must be inclusive, he asserts.  300 Sami colored captain&#8217;s ties Today there are only two copies of the captain&#8217;s tie.  These are owned by TIL, and now Stab\u00e6k.  But project manager at RomsaD\u00e1l, Elle Nystad, says that they plan to order far more.  Elle Nystad in RomsaD\u00e1l.  Photo: Eva Ersfjord &#8211; The plan is to order 100-300 captain&#8217;s bandages, so that we can distribute and give them away, both here in the city and outside, says Nystad.  The reason why the Sami colored captain&#8217;s armbands were made is because TIL wanted something that symbolizes that they support the Sami population, Nystad says.  &#8211; And also for visibility, as well as inspiring other football teams who experience harassment, racism or discrimination against Sami people in their city or on their team.  Encourages the use of the captain&#8217;s armband And this has served its purpose, when Stab\u00e6k chooses to use the captain&#8217;s armband.  Captain Bj\u00e5nes\u00f8y encourages other teams in the top series and the elite series to adopt it.  Melissa Bj\u00e5nes\u00f8y says that the purpose is to shed light on the challenges we face.

At least it&#8217;s something I&#8217;m very proud of, and which gives my role a lot more meaning, says Captain Bj\u00e5nes\u00f8y.  &#8211; We want to shine a light on the challenges we have and ensure that everyone is seen and everyone is treated well and equally.<br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrk.no\/sapmi\/stabaek-kvinner-tar-i-bruk-samiskfarget-kapteinsbind-1.16101722\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ttn-69 <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You keep hearing about Sami football players who experience harassment both on and off the football field.
