Clubs & Supporters For Better Governance In Football: Training Events

Each event was facilitated by one of the project partners and focused on identifying both best practice and practical improvements that partners can implement within their own organisations, or which could be investigated further by SD Europe on behalf of the partnership.

​

GOOD GOVERNANCE TRAINING EVENT: MANCHESTER, UK

The project’s first training event was held at Broadhurst Park, the home of FC United of Manchester. It focused on how governance can be properly established and maintained within democratic organisations, specifically member-run clubs and supporters’ organisations.

SUSTAINABLE FINANCE WORKSHOP: MALMÖ, SWEDEN

The project’s second training event took place at the Swedbank Stadion, home of Malmö FF in Sweden. Good financial practices are at the heart of every sustainable business, and football clubs and national supporters’ organisation are no different.
