Ethnic Minorities and Coaching in Elite Level Football in England

Posted on by Standard

December public discussion flyer

Only one week to go before our next public discussion, on 9th December 2014.

See attached flyer and booking form.

Speakers:

  • Dr Steve Bradbury, Co-author of the report “Ethnic Minorities and Coaching in elite level football in England;  A Call to Action”, and
  • Keith Murdoch, CEO of Leicestershire and Rutland County FA

Dr Bradbury’s report (released just a few weeks ago), found that there are only 19 BME coaches in the 552 ‘top’ coaching positions at professional English clubs. BME coaches take up 3.4% of those positions despite at least 25% of players coming from BME backgrounds. The study says that “institutional discrimination” is present within the English leagues.
