Abstract

This research was done to investigate why football clubs around the world should make the efforts required to be more sustainable whilst diving into the difficulties and benefits of doing so. Through reading existing material and visible proof from football clubs acting sustainable, this research aims to explore the social, financial, and environmental benefits of using sustainability within the field of sports. By looking into the world of sport today, many clubs can be seen ignoring the topic of sustainability and being a football fan myself made me wonder why this was the case. In today's world of sport, it often seems that being sustainable and successful does not go hand in hand. This was something that caught my attention and gave me the idea to conduct the research to investigate what clubs are being sustainable and how is benefiting their future success not just off the field but also on it.
