Big thanks to Millwall FC for hosting our NC State College of Natural Resources NC State StudyAbroad students today. Great to hear about the work of Millwall Community Trust and also learn about the hospitality and sponsorship side. Nice tour of the Den from Lucy and Alex. A community club definitely on their way up.

Our NC State University #PackAbroad sport management students had a great time Saracens Rugby Club today despite the result. They learned a lot about rugby and were excited to cheer on another Wolfpack!
This concern over late action reinforces my research findings w/ Jason Bocarro Mike Edwards which indicated that leverage on human rights around major sport event is greatest early on in the planning and delivery cycle tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… (2/2) EventRights
Couldn’t have asked for a better start for the NCFC Youth 09 Courage. Played some great soccer and earned two wins against Classic teams. Big game tomorrow morning. Win/draw and into the final. Regardless of what happens, couldn’t be prouder of these players!
Today’s visit to Cambridge Rugby 🏉 gave our NC State University #PackAbroad students a deeper look at community-based sport in the UK. Huge thanks to Nick Dance & CRUFC Community Team for the behind-the-scenes access and thoughtful insights. A great day out!
