fanguide2008 launched for supporters

Sunday's UEFA EURO 2008™ draw ushers in the final phase of preparations for next summer's tournament, and UEFA has given its backing to a new website launched to assist supporters as they start booking trips to follow their teams in Austria and Switzerland.

'By fans, for fans'
The official fan website of the finals, fanguide2008.net, is available in the languages of all the competing nations and contains the relevant information needed for supporters intending to travel to the alpine countries – from where to stay and how to get around to details on stadiums and events in the eight host cities. Like the fan embassies, employed to service the needs of travelling supporters, the website is designed 'by fans, for fans'.

Fan embassies
All eight host cities across the two countries will have fan embassies providing help and support and serving as contact and information points. They are just one of several community service projects being backed by UEFA ahead of next summer's championship. During the tournament, the website will be constantly updated to keep people abreast of what help is available and where.
