Grimsby Town Football Club reached out to us and invited us to discuss Football on the Brain with their staff. Our team members Holly Bridge and Louise Aukland travelled there this summer to introduce the project, run some of our activities and to gather input on which neuroscience-related topics are most relevant and most in need of support for their coaching staff. ​

Questions their staff had for our researchers included:​

  • How many instructions or pieces of information are teenagers capable of taking on in one go before a match?​
  • Is it too late to do anything about brain health, for those who have now stopped playing professional football?
