The Rising Threat to Football Clubs

In today's digital age, false allegations have become a critical threat to football clubs worldwide. With social media amplifying accusations and the 24-hour news cycle, a single allegation can devastate club valuations, destroy careers, and trigger sponsor exits within hours. The impact is immediate, and the damage can be irreversible.

Internal Systems & Cyber Compliance

In today's digital landscape, clubs face unprecedented risks. Our comprehensive system aligns with the 2025 Cyber Security & Resilience Act, ensuring your internal processes are not just compliant, but fortified. Without proper systems in place, a single breach could cost millions in legal fees, sponsor withdrawals, and reputational damage. We've helped clubs implement robust frameworks that protect against both internal vulnerabilities and external threats.

Academy-Wide Protection

From U18s to first team, every player and staff member needs protection. Our preventative measures program has trained hundreds of academy players and staff to recognize red flags before they become crises. The cost of not acting is clear: careers derailed, reputations shattered, and clubs facing millions in damages. Our protocol ensures everyone understands the warning signs and knows exactly what steps to take when concerns arise.

Why False Allegations Are Rising in Football

Social media has created an environment where accusations can go viral instantly, causing immediate damage before any verification.

High-profile players and massive contracts make football clubs attractive targets for false allegations seeking financial settlements.

Lack of proper protocols and training leaves clubs vulnerable, with no systematic way to prevent or respond to allegations.
