The nation's buzzing about this year's world cup. With good results in the qualifiers and a favourable group draw, England has had a good run up to the games.

But whilst the team are shaping up nicely, are we prepared off the pitch?

Dangerous play

Large sporting events have been linked to the increased spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). With drinks flowing and everybody enjoying themselves, it's easy to get carried away.

If you don't protect yourself, your world cup could be ruined by picking up something nasty. So do yourself a favour and wear a condom every time you have sex.

Away from home

If you're going abroad, make sure you pack plenty of condoms before you go. Download and print your free guide to a successful summer of football (opposite) to find out where you can get them from. If you're flying to South Africa, be aware of the extra risks you face over there.

So there are even more reasons to protect yourself when you play.

Know your game plan

Print off your free guide to a successful summer of football (opposite) which contains information about sexual health, travelling abroad and where to get condoms from. It even has a fixtures list so you won't miss a game.

You can also watch and share our video (above right) and get more information from some of the useful links (see bottom of page). If you want to raise awareness in your organisation, you can also print off and put up our posters click here.
