Time well spent, submitting an abstract to the The Sport Development Network conference...

...and submitting a response to 'Help Shape the Future of Sports Development!' Dr Mathew Dowling

Slightly biased, but I would highly recommend engaging with both!

Any excuse to don my Jude Bellingham RMCF shirt 🙌😄 a pleasure, as always, to talk to Adam's visiting group and think about how British print media offers an insight into UK football cultures... it does help to have a splashy current news debate around a flag on a collar 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿😅⚽️

Our day began with a lecture from Dr. Verity Postlethwaite. We visited Leyton Orient FC where we spoke with Director of Football Martin Ling about running an EFL club and toured the ground with Robbie Minchin. We ended the day watching Chelsea Women vs Ajax in the WUCL at Stamford Bridge.

Brilliant piece from Alice Soper 'Opinion: Women’s sport has always been political – it’s about time the CEOs embraced it' thespinoff.co.nz/sports/12-03-2…

💡 What is the contribution of #SportForDevelopment to national policy objectives?
