Data for Sporting Directors

Make sure you are ahead of the game

This course provides a comprehensive guide to using data in football, covering everything from the history and types of data to advanced applications in player recruitment, tactical analysis, and coaching decisions. Led by Dominic Jordan, the only person to have worked at an executive level with both Elon Musk and Manchester United, the focus is on how to get the most out of data within your organisation. Real-world case studies — from Brighton’s playing style evolution to Brentford’s talent identification — anchor each module in practical, club-level insight.

By the end, participants will know how to structure a data department, integrate analytics into decision-making, and plan next steps tailored to their club’s context and budget. From National League to the Premier League, this course is built for Sporting Directors who want to make smarter decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and lead with confidence in a data-driven era.

Testimonials

"If you are interested in Analytics and Football, it’s an excellent learning resource and highly recommended."

Kenny McMillan, Aspire Academy.

"Thank you for all this course does for the community. I’ll be joining a Brazilian club as a data scientist in the upcoming weeks, and it is crystal clear that it would not happen without your course."

Rodrigo Salvador, Red Bull Bragantino.

"Learned a lot of new things and met incredible people. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend signing up for the course."

Mikha Gabechava, Head Scout, FC Dinamo Tbilisi.

"I appreciated the course very much. I recommend it for anyone interested in gaining (additional) knowledge in data science/analysis in their organization."

Martin Vogelbein, Scouting, Match Analysis and Diagnosis, Deutscher Fußball-Bund.

"My Python coding was a weak area for me, and I really wanted to improve in this so I can be more responsive to the needs of the coach and team. It was a great course, with such useful skills being covered. There are so many analysts working in football, but so much mathematics missing from their skillsets."

Mark Carter, English FA.

"The course tutor dedicated time to sit with me individually, start from scratch, and write a customised step-by-step plan to wrangle one of the file formats I provided him. For me, this was going above and beyond his duties and really assisted me as a relative beginner in Python."

Liam Cody, Pro Solutions Team Lead - APAC & Americas, Statsperform.

"The course combined mathematics, programming, and real-life cases from industry experts - along with three obligatory hand-ins in Python. Being able to apply this course to own data sources and develop bespoke metrics makes this course recommendable."

Simon Eilersen, Football Data Consultant, Danish League.

"I enjoyed the course very much. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, in which I was nevertheless able to gain some exciting insights. It was a great opportunity for me to get familiar with event and tracking data in the context of game analysis/scouting. Especially the insight into presenting the results via Python Streamlit was a big game changer for me. We are now establishing this framework at TSG Hoffenheim."

Fabian Rupp, Business Intelligence & Data Analytics, Hoffenheim.
