The Forest Green Rovers project is special for so many reasons, and it\u2019s blazing a trail for how all professional sports teams can work differently in the future. At FIFA+, we\u2019re immensely proud to be able to give a platform to this story, and it was a joy to work with Forest Green Rovers\u2014particularly in such a successful season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dale Vince, CEO at Forest Green Rovers, added: It\u2019s been great to work with FIFA on this film\u2014one of the first to be on their new FIFA+ channel. There have been football documentaries before, of course\u2014but none about a club like Forest Green Rovers because there are no clubs quite like Forest Green. This film conveys our story and our work on and off the pitch perfectly. Football is a new frontier for environmental responsibility and communications\u2014something we know FIFA and FGR both see as a vital evolution for the sport.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Passion Docs\u2019 Amy Foster said: \u201cWith a global reputation for crafting cinematic, impactful films with social purpose at their core, Passion Docs has always been drawn to stories that need to be told, and the Forest Green Rovers story is definitely one of them. With their trail-blazing approach to football and the environment, this is a sports story that\u2019s so important and inspiring for our time\u2014it shows clubs and fans alike that there is another way.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FIFA+ has commissioned from Passion Docs an original documentary about the Forest Green Rovers, the first and only UN-certified carbon-neutral sports team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":18516,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[6351,6352],"class_list":["post-18515","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-fifa","tag-passion-docs","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>FIFA+ Orders Another Way: The Forest Green Rovers Story - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/fifa-orders-another-way-the-forest-green-rovers-story\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"FIFA+ Orders Another Way: The Forest Green Rovers Story - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"FIFA+ has commissioned from Passion Docs an original documentary about the Forest Green Rovers, the first and only UN-certified carbon-neutral sports team.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/fifa-orders-another-way-the-forest-green-rovers-story\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-07-28T13:00:35+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-07-28T15:13:51+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/Forest-Green-Rovers-Chairman-Dale-Vince-0722.jpeg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/fifa-orders-another-way-the-forest-green-rovers-story\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/fifa-orders-another-way-the-forest-green-rovers-story\/\",\"name\":\"FIFA+ Orders Another Way: The Forest Green Rovers Story - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-07-28T13:00:35+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-07-28T15:13:51+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/fifa-orders-another-way-the-forest-green-rovers-story\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/fifa-orders-another-way-the-forest-green-rovers-story\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/fifa-orders-another-way-the-forest-green-rovers-story\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"FIFA+ Orders Another Way: The Forest Green Rovers Story\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
