Introducing the Club Staff Offer for TGG Live ’26

TGG Live returns to Old Trafford on 29-30 September 2026 and for the first time the event has a dedicated offer built specially for club and federation staff – with discounts of up to £76 a ticket.
There is also the option of flexible invoicing and booking places before naming who’s coming.
TGG Live has sold out for the last three years running. Last year’s edition brought together 450+ delegates and 30+ elite speakers from across professional football, and 2026 is shaping up to be the biggest yet, with new role-specific break-out sessions added alongside the main agenda.
Elite speakers, real CPD
TGG Live provides real CPD: role-specific break-outs, presentations from leading club and federation staff on how things actually work, plus world-class panels.
This year’s line-up includes a keynote from Merijn Zeeman, Managing Director of AZ Alkmaar, plus panels featuring Ross Wilson (Sporting Director, Newcastle United), Simon Wilson (Sporting Director, Sheffield Wednesday), and the Academy Directors from Manchester United, Brentford and Wolves.
New for 2026 are dedicated break-out tracks for Sporting Directors, Recruitment, Analytics, Coaching & Academies and Performance – giving delegates deep-dive, role-specific content rather than one-size-fits-all sessions. Day One closes with an exclusive networking dinner.
"There have already been three or four conversations with high-ups at different clubs I wouldn't have run into at different Conferences"
Elliott Stapley, Assistant Sporting Director, Southampton (2025 delegate)
The Club Staff Offer
Club and federation staff can now access exclusive discounted pricing across every ticket type:
Prices shown before booking fee and VAT.
To unlock the discount (which is available in August only), email from your club or federation address to request a promo code – this also gets you the full event brochure, with the complete two-day agenda. The offer comes with two other practical perks for clubs booking multiple staff:
- Book now, name later. Reserve your club’s places today and add delegate names closer to the date — you don’t need to know exactly who’s coming yet.
- Invoice for bulk tickets. Booking more than one member of staff? TGG Live can invoice your club directly rather than requiring card payment one ticket at a time.
What past delegates say
“You meet so many different people from so many different clubs — and from different industries as well. We all have the same processes, but it’s great to listen, communicate and connect. It’s been brilliant.” Peter Ramage, Assistant Player Loans Manager, Newcastle United
“It was really good to listen to different speakers in the industry. The panels were brilliant at answering different questions live and giving real-life situations and giving insight.” Natasha Patel, Director of Sporting Analytics, US Soccer
How to get your code
