The Arizona Coyotes are a professional ice hockey team based in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona. They compete in the National Hockey League's (NHL) Pacific Division of the Western Conference. Since December 2003, the Coyotes have played their home games at Gila River Arena after having spent the previous 7½ seasons at America West Arena (now US Airways Center) in downtown Phoenix. The Coyotes were founded on December 27, 1971 as the original Winnipeg Jets of the World Hockey Association (WHA). After the WHA had ceased operations, they were one of four original franchises absorbed into the National Hockey League and then officially granted membership on June 22, 1979. The Jets moved to Phoenix on July 1, 1996 and were renamed as the Phoenix Coyotes. The NHL took over ownership of the Phoenix Coyotes franchise in 2009 after previous owner Jerry Moyes (who had incurred massive financial losses since his purchase of the team in 2005) turned it over to the league after declaring bankruptcy. Prior to that, Moyes had previously attempted to privately sell the team to Canadian billionaire Jim Balsillie, who wanted to relocate the team to Hamilton, Ontario, but the NHL protested that the attempted sale was a violation of league policy and a court agreed. In the 4 years that followed, the league vehemently resisted selling the team to interests that would have moved the team out of the Phoenix area, and on July 3, 2013, reached an agreement that will keep the team in Glendale for the near future. The sale to IceArizona Acquisition Co., LLC. was completed on August 5, 2013. On June 27, 2014, the team changed its franchise name to ""Arizona Coyotes"" and modified its secondary logo.
Founded by American sports pioneer Lamar Hunt as a charter franchise of the American Football League in 1960 as the Dallas Texans, the team relocated to Kansas City in 1963 and became known as the Chiefs. Under the leadership of the Hunt family, the club has reached professional football’s ultimate summit twice, earning victories in Super Bowl IV (1969 season) and Super Bowl LIV (2019 season). As one of the most successful franchises of the past decade, Kansas City owns the second-most wins (91) and is tied for the most playoff appearances (seven) of all NFL teams since Head Coach Andy Reid joined the club in 2013. Off of the field, the Chiefs proudly boast five Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award recipients, tying for the most among any franchise in the league, highlighting the club’s commitment to the community. GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, the home of the Chiefs, is one of the most iconic venues in all of professional sports. As the Guinness World Record holder for loudest crowd roar at an outdoor sports venue, the stadium seats approximately 73,000 fans. Over the past decade, the club’s Arrowhead Events business has made the stadium an entertainment destination that serves the entire Midwest region with concerts, international soccer matches, college football games and motorsports events. The entire Chiefs family operates with four core values as part of its mission: Win with Character, Unite our Community, Inspire our Fans, and Honor Tradition.
Founded in 1904, the Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) is the umbrella organisation of its members, currently 211 national football associations. Its main objectives, enshrined in its statutes, are to develop football around the world, to stage international competitions and to protect the integrity of football (against match manipulation, doping etc.). FIFA is composed of a number of political bodies (such as the FIFA Congress and the FIFA Council) and the administration. The highest political position is the FIFA President, elected every four years by FIFA`s member associations. The FIFA administration, with some 720 people from over 50 nations, is based in Zurich. It is run by the Secretary General (CEO). FIFA stages FIFA World Cups™ in various forms such as youth, men`s and women`s, futsal, beach soccer or club competitions. The men`s FIFA World Cup™ is not only the most popular single sporting event in the world but also the financial backbone for FIFA and its efforts to develop football worldwide. The financial success of the FIFA World Cup™ allows FIFA to run a wide range of football development programmes and to provide funds, infrastructure and know-how to its member associations through the FIFA Forward Development Programme.
