Green and White Army

The Green and White Army are fans that follow the Northern Ireland national football team, noted for their passionate support.

"[6][7] The Amalgamation of Official Northern Ireland Supporters Clubs acts as the recognised voice of the Green and White Army and co-ordinates many activities on their behalf.

[8] The group was formed in 1999, initially to co-ordinate the activities of the various independent supporters clubs which existed at the time, but has now evolved into a much larger organisation which represents over 60 clubs with over 2,000 members.

[citation needed] The Green and White Army received recognition for its work in promoting "football for all" in Northern Ireland by being awarded the internationally recognised Brussels International Supporters Award.

[10] There are also other clubs who call their fans the 'green and white army', including Yeovil Town in the English Football League Two.
