Had an incredible experience this past weekend witnessing baseball on an international stage. Besides the seemingly overwhelming majority of Phillies fans, it was interesting to see the mix of attendees, from US travelers to locals, expats, and general baseball enthusiasts at London Stadium. While the long-term goal of growing the game in England and beyond remains to be seen, the economic impact of the MLB London Series was undeniable. Over 100,000 fans attended the two-game series, filling the city for 3-4 days and packing hotels, pubs, and countless tourist attractions.

Video Analysis Report: On this Report presented to Canberra United Football Club Head coach we can see how they played against Melbourne City FC on their final game for the last season at the Liberty A-League. Interesting to see how they changed their pressing for the second half, needing to get a win to qualify for playoffs. On the offensive side, they planned a game with quick transitions, where you can see two goals scored by this way. I share with you my portfolio where you can find some more examples: https://lnkd.in/dC5HUPbs #VideoAnalysis #MetricaSports #Hudl

Love this interview. Positive reinforcement of the environment that all clubs, every sport, should be striving to create within their teams. “There are no dumb questions …. Right?” Also where he talks about the front office recruiting the type of player that wants to learn. Has desire to get better. If a coach can surround him or herself with like-minded coaches and players it creates a really impressive group of individuals who all buy in to the same philosophy ……. “What do we need to do to be successful?” Then plan the work and work the plan.

A Supportive Environment in the National Football League (NFL) Great to hear Los Angeles Rams player, Cooper Kupp, reflecting on the supportive environment at the Rams, in which he was supported as rookie, and now offers that support to other rookies. Kupp also talks about the character of the players, and this emphasises the importance of recruitment, something I have posted about before with Tottenham Hotspur Football Club head coach, Ange Postecoglou: https://lnkd.in/eZ36rNk6 A great example on what happens when players are encouraged to support each other.

𝐍𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐖𝐞’𝐫𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒-𝟐𝟓 👀 The new Premier League season is here, and that means it’s time to get excited. On Friday night, 2024-25 begins for real (no, the Community Shield doesn’t count) with Manchester United hosting Fulham, and we at Opta Analyst can barely contain ourselves. Manchester City are set for another who-will-blink-first title race with Arsenal, at least six teams are likely to be competing for the remaining Champions League spots, there’s reason to be optimistic for lots of last season’s mid-table teams, and the promoted sides look better prepared to make a good fist of survival than the last lot did. There are also a fair few individuals we’re looking forward to watching, too – nine of them to be precise. Here, we take a closer look at those players and explain what it is exactly that we’re so excited to see: https://lnkd.in/d8aaDwCv

Globalization of Football Ownership The article discusses the changing ownership landscape in Europe's top football leagues, focusing on the Premier League and Bundesliga. It notes a significant presence of foreign owners, especially from the USA, in the English league compared to just one club in the German league. This difference is attributed to Germany's 50+1 rule, which prioritizes fan ownership. The article also mentions the Owners’ and Directors’ Test, a regulation in England to ensure suitable ownership. It highlights the dominance of American owners across various European leagues and emphasizes the global nature of football ownership, involving investors from 17 different countries. https://lnkd.in/d4YNxRPj

A Texas community is looking past people's immigration status, bringing together migrants to play a classic American pastime in the unique Amateur Latin American Baseball League. How many MLB players are Latin American? Throughout Major League Baseball history, close to 2,000 players of Hispanic descent have been featured on big-league rosters. Today, they make up nearly 25% of the league's talent -- a number that continues to rise each season. In case you are wondering, still, all teams have at least five Latin American players on their rosters. The Houston Astros, who won the 2022 World Series, count 17, almost half of the team's total. https://lnkd.in/eb9B7itY Photo: Amateur baseball players with Team Nicaragua before a game played recently in Carrollton.

Former MLB All-Star Dexter Fowler has recently ventured into the realm of English football by acquiring a minority stake in AFC Bournemouth. On 19 August 2024, Dexter Fowler's investment in AFC Bournemouth was officially announced. Although the exact size of his stake has not been disclosed, this move signifies a significant crossover between American sports and English football. Fowler’s decision aligns with the growing trend of athletes diversifying their investment portfolios by acquiring stakes in sports franchises outside their primary domain. AFC Bournemouth, popularly known as "The Cherries", has enjoyed a remarkable rise through the English football pyramid, and have solidified their status as a Premier League club, competing in the top division since the 2015/16 campaign. Fowler's investment in AFC Bournemouth is significant for several reasons: Cross-sport investment: It exemplifies the increasing interest among athletes from other sports in owning football clubs. International appeal: This move underscores the global allure of the Premier League, attracting investors from across the Atlantic. Financial implications: While specifics have not been disclosed, Fowler's investment could potentially provide the club with additional resources to enhance its squad and infrastructure. American influence: This development adds to the growing presence of American investors in English football, following a trend seen in other Premier League clubs. Fowler's entry into the Premier League ownership landscape comes at a time of significant financial activity within the league. The league has consistently witnessed substantial spending by clubs like Chelsea, Manchester United, and Manchester City. While it remains to be seen how Fowler's involvement will affect AFC Bournemouth's fortunes on and off the pitch, his investment represents an intriguing development in the ever-evolving landscape of football club ownership and underscores the Premier League's continued global appeal. https://lnkd.in/eyKUQQVM #AFCBournemouth #PremierLeague #FootballFinance #FootballBusiness
