About  Us

Clean Sheet Academy

Reputational damage within the football industry is endemic. Lurid front-page headlines about sex crimes, historic child abuse allegations, tax-dodging scams and gambling have highlighted the vulnerability of sport to reputational risk.

Unique Service

Clean Sheet offers a unique niche service for clients within the sports world that protects them from the sort of attack and subsequent damage that clubs, owners, managers and players have suffered.

Peace of Mind

We work to give our clients the training, information and peace of mind they need to avoid falling into any traps laid by journalists, unscrupulous business people, social media stirrers and other hangers-on who prey on unprepared and vulnerable sports professionals.

Protection

We have the legal, media management and public relations skills to protect our clients.

Why now?

Football clubs and the PFA are being called upon to introduce comprehensive programmes of sexual awareness training for those involved in the club both on and off the pitch.
