Eamon Devlin Eamon Devlin, a PhD student at the Carnegie School of Sport at Leeds Beckett,is the organiser of this event. His research focuses on half-time (HT) breaks in elite sports—particularly in football, rugby, and basketball—and is working to figure out what makes for an effective HT break and what a “good” HT team talk should look and sound like. Eamon is 46, so a bit of a mature (okay, older) student, living in Oxfordshire with my wife, two daughters, one dog, and four cats. Outside of his studies, he runs a consultancy called Minute9, which aims to make elite teams more effective in terms of communication on game-day. Clients include three English Premier League teams, four Champions League teams, and several rugby international and club teams. Eamon's academic journey started in law. He completed a law degree many years ago before diving into the world of psychology. In 2023, he completed a Master’s in Psychology at Brunel University, which was the perfect stepping stone for his PhD. He began his PhD in October 2024, and feels fortunate to be working with a fantastic team of supervisors: Dr. Dave Alder, Dr. Tom Mitchell, and Prof. John Lyle—yes, they really are as good as they sound (yes, he was told to say that).

About the presentation: Over the decades, football has remained the most popular sport on earth and grass-roots sport in the UK continues to be the first experience many children have of the professional game. In this speed-run through his experiences in grass-roots football, Ahmed draws on these experiences to inform, educate and enlighten. Looking at crucial incidences where football has served to prove successful in creating positive social contributions whilst viewing these alongside current events to answer the question ‘can football fix society?’ Who is it for? It is hoped this presentation will appeal to academics, grass-roots coaches, players and families as well as anyone with an interest in sport and society. Grass-roots sports supplies a voluntary vocation for many thousands of people every weekend across the UK and fulfils a trusted and inspiring role. Local grass-roots clubs need coaches and community support now more than ever but can also offer so much in return. Presented by: Ahmed El-Turabi is a Leeds Beckett University alum (MSc Sports Events Management, 2020) who conducted research in culture and football, surveying attitudes towards the FIFA 2022 World Cup in Qatar from Arab and British perspectives. He is a Leeds resident and football coach who credits football as being the lifeline that connects him to wider society, providing him and so many others with a sense of purpose, identity and belonging. Ahmed started his coaching journey as a FA-qualified coach almost a decade ago and now coaches locally with Chapeltown Juniors and at Premier League champions Manchester City FC.
