Grassroots UEFA Grassroots Awards
In relation to the activity of the Aterpe program, it should be remembered that Athletic Club has recently received the award for the best European professional club for the 2021-22 season, within the UEFA Grassroots Awards for Grassroots Football, which have been held since 2010. Pioneer Aterpe Program for the Protection of Minors has been considered one of the strengths of the program that has led the entity chaired by Alexander Ceferin to distinguish Athletic Club.
