NEW PAPER: much has been made of the grassroot backgrounds of the recent @England #EURO2020 squad. With New Labour's modernisation agenda in mind, this research explores the experiences of the volunteers that football (and all sport) depend on. tandfonline.com/eprint/DS7ZR…
@UWS_Sport Sport Management & Enterprise students have spent this term applying taught content into practice with the Tenner to Tons challenge run by @SSF_Futures. Groups were given £10 and tasked with turning this into as much money as possible. Over £500 was raised for SSF. 1/2
@UWS_Sport second year Sport Development students hosting their Christmas Comes to Campus sports day. Badminton, table tennis, table football, beat the goalie, and Just Dance. Raising money for @SSF_Futures. Staff, students, and visitors welcome to join in with prizes to be won
Great to be able to present research about the evolving role of the football development practitioner and the implications this has on micro-political interests and emotions. Thank you @FB_Collective for having me. What a well organised conference
@UWS_Sport
Looking forward to supporting this event in Newcastle next week. Alongside supporting the event I will be presenting research developed during my time at @SAFCFoL titled- "The evolving role of the football development practitioner- football coach to social worker"

It was great to see the students embrace this opportunity for applying principles learned in the classroom into practice and raise money in the process. Looking forward to seeing what entrepreneurial ideas this year’s students come up with.
We are delighted to be working with @UniWestScotland again this semester on our entrepreneurial fundraiser - Tenner to Tons!
