UCFB Future Sport 2018
UCFB is delighted to present Future Sport – its inaugural magazine packed full of highlights of UCFB graduates in the workplace and exclusive interviews with the biggest names in sport. The issue is led by England manager Gareth Southgate, who with a World Cup just around the corner gave us his thoughts on leadership and the importance of education for a modern day coach. Sky Sports’ Hayley McQueen, Tottenham’s Mauricio Pochettino and Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers also feature. UCFB graduates feature heavily throughout the issue, showcasing their skills and talent in the workplace at clubs and organisations including The Football Association, Watford FC, Sky Sports and the Evening Standard. Future Sport also takes an in-depth look at London’s relationship with the NFL, and compares the promotion of big boxing events and the contrasting promotional styles of former heavy-weight world champions Wladimir Klitschko and David Haye.
