According to media reports on 06 March 2011, FIFA, world football's governing body, has banned the use of neck-warming snoods in competitive fixtures, with the ban taking effect in July 2011. FIFA president Sepp Blatter said, 'a snood is not part of the equipment and it can be dangerous. The decision was unanimous. There was not even a discussion because this is not part of the uniform.'
