On Board for Sport

💡 Young Professionals on Sports Boards 💡

Sports governance in Scotland is evolving, and the next generation of leaders have a real opportunity to shape its future. But stepping into the boardroom can feel daunting, with barriers around confidence, representation, and knowing where to start.

Young Professionals on Sports Boards is a hybrid event designed to demystify sports governance and inspire young professionals to take their first steps into leadership roles. Hosted at Harper Macleod, the discussion will explore how skills from law and other sectors can add real value in sport, while showcasing the journeys of those who have already made the leap.

On the night, you’ll hear directly from a panel of speakers who bring perspectives from law, governance, and sport:

• Viktoria Tsvetanova – Competition Lawyer, Dentons & Director, Badminton Europe

• Bruce Caldow – Head of Sports Law, Harper Macleod

• Chris Duffy – Founder, PF Sports Advisory

📅 Wednesday 8 October 2025, 6:30pm – 7:30pm

📍 Harper Macleod, Gordon Street, Glasgow + Zoom option

Join us to explore the pathways into sports boards, how to overcome barriers, and why young professionals — especially those from underrepresented groups — are essential for the future of Scottish sport.
