SPONSORED CONTENT
For carefully selected partners, we can produce sponsored content. This is a bespoke article, written by the TGG team, which promotes a company or product. The article will be promoted via our social media channels and will be included in our weekly newsletter.
It is important to note that the requirements for this type of content are as stringent as for any of our articles - they must be editorially strong and include a case study (usually from a player or club). Final editorial control always rests with TGG.

This is an example of a TGG campaign and the impact it had for our partners. Our Academy Productivity Rankings represent a unique piece of research that is highly valued within professional football, by staff, players and parents.
