Join our LMA Guest Speaker Sessions
We will be running a guest speaker session specifically for our schools and colleges. Through our partnership with the League Managers Association, UCFB have previously welcomed Roy Keane, Gareth Southgate, Emma Hayes & Alan Shearer, to name just a few - check out our YouTube channel for more.
We're offering your students the opportunity to experience just how inspiring this can be for themselves, by providing access to our next exclusive interview on Thursday 6th May from 10am. The guest is always a surprise, but it’s always hugely insightful.
UCFB x Equip
EQUIP is a life skills training and education organisation which focuses on values and is aimed at helping people develop to fulfil their potential, promoting skills such as teamwork, confidence and perseverance which can be used at home, in school and in participants future careers.
Equip was created by alumni Liam Kiziltan who since graduating from our BA (Hons) Football Business & Marketing degree programme in 2017, has continued to grow his business EQUIP Coaching to a place where he now leads a team of 20 staff and volunteers.
Take A Stand Challenge
We're collaborating with The Inspirational Learning Group and Kick It Out to launch the Take A Stand Challenge - a programme designed to raise awareness of the issues affecting black players, coaches and managers in football.
Students aged 14-19 will reflect on the personal stories of several former professional players before creating their own Manifesto for Change.
The programme will culminate in a National Finals event and is FREE of charge to schools and colleges across the UK.
