Looking back at the Class of 2025/26 | ISC 30 Under Thirty Awards


In March, the Class of 2025/26 collected their awards at the ISC 30 Under Thirty Awards ceremony at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The awards recognise 30 young professionals who are already making their mark on the sports industry.

The class spans leagues, governing bodies, agencies, media, technology and grassroots sport. As nominations open for the next class, we’re taking a moment to celebrate them again.
