Workshop

Football broadcasting and media management workshop

The art of communicating with fans through the football media is one that is constantly changing.

There are more platforms than ever before, and there are more questions to be answered. Different channels and publications will ask different questions with different agendas. The challenge is to get them all to hear the answer that you want to give.

The PFA Business School has worked with communication professionals to design a programme that offers practical guidance in how to deal with real-life situations that confront coaches, managers and players on a daily basis in football. We have enlisted the very people whose job it is to try to get you to say something you don’t want to say, and asked them to instruct you in how to avoid that!
