UEFA MIP 4 Session 6 – Back to Manchester

by Viktoria Rosta0 Comments

The UEFA MIP was back in the North of England.

A couple of weeks after the MIP third edition’s finl session in the North of England, we were back to Manchester and Liverpool for the 5th session of MIP fourth edition.

Once again co-managed by Stéphane Ehrhart (UEFA Academy) and Christophe Lepetit (CDES Limoges), this session was dedicated to stadium operations and sporting direction of clubs. During these 5 intense days, we had the opportunity to be hosted by some of the most iconic English football clubs: Manchester United (Aon training complex and Old Trafford), Manchester City (Etihad Stadium) and Liverpool (Anfield).

The participants received many insights coming from stadium and sporting experts. They were also very active, taking part in many workshops and simulations. They also had to present an update of the work carried out on their managerial report.

This session was the last one of 2022. The UEFA MIP 4th cohort will meet again in 2023 for the two last sessions in London 6-10 February) and Miami (27-31 March).

Final whistle for the MIP third edition!

by Viktoria Rosta0 Comments

MIP 3 participants took part in the last session of the programme at the beginning of September in the North of England. After coping with 3 very disrupted years due to the COVID-19 pandemic during which they experienced considerable upheaval (sessions postponed, zoom sessions, bubble sessions, etc.), this final meeting was organised in Manchester and Liverpool from 5 to 9 September.

Co-directed by Christophe LEPETIT (CDES) and Stéphane EHRHART (UEFA Academy), the session dealt with two main issues: stadium and operations management and responsibilities of a sporting director.

Hosted in some of the most beautiful and iconic venues of Manchester (Old Trafford, AON Training Complex, Etihad Stadium) and Liverpool (Anfield), many experts coming from the sporting industry shared their insights and knowledge during these five days. The participants also had the possibility to shadow a stadium manager around a UEFA Europa League game between Manchester United and Real Sociedad.

After this last session – and a very busy year of 2022 – MIP 3 participants will have a final celebration at their graduation ceremony, early November, in Nyon.

UEFA MIP third edition in Miami

by Viktoria Rosta0 Comments
For the very first time the UEFA MIP’s US session was moved from New-York to Miami. Managed by Christophe Lepetit, head of economic studies and UEFA MIP director, and Francesc Solanellas, professor of sport management at INEF Catalunya, this session took place from 2 to 6 May 2022. The group was hosted at some of the most prestigious sporting venues of the city, such as the University of Miami, CONCACAF headquarters, Miami Marlins Stadium, Inter Miami Stadium and Eagle FC Arena. During these five days, the group had the opportunity to listen to many speakers and experts from the above mentioned sports organisations as well as from the MLS, the NBA Players Association and Relevent. Various topics making the US sporting model so specific were discussed and analysed, such as the Rooney rule, Title IX, salary cap, draft, luxury tax, collective negotiation, etc. These presentations allowed the participants to increase their knowledge about regulation and debate about what could or couldn’t be implemented in European football. Special thanks to the CONCACAF team, especially to Jason Roberts (UEFA MIP I), Jonathan Martines (MESGO V) and Christhian Tonelli, who have been a wonderful support in the organisation of this session. After many postponed sessions in 2020 because of Covid19, the UEFA MIP III will meet for their final session in England in September and then celebrate their graduation at UEFA in Switzerland on 4 November 2022.
