About Us

About us

SPORTFIVE is one of the largest sports marketing agencies in the world. We work across a variety of sports and a variety of service areas ranging from sponsorship and advertising rights sales to talent consultancy and activation. However, football remains at the core of what we do, and as part of the Lagadère Unlimited family of sports brands we can accurately claim to be the biggest (and hopefully the best) in the market.

What we do?

Our Brand Services division represents businesses that want to use football to deliver on their brand and commercial objectives. Our clients range from some of the largest spenders in world football like EA SPORTS, Heineken and Hyundai, to challenger brands building tactical, cost-effective football campaigns. As the old adage goes, no client is to too big or too small.

We acquire talent, purchase sponsorships, activate partnerships, build promotions, manage campaigns, buy rights, create concepts, deliver events, organise matches, measure ROI and we do it all on behalf of our brand clients.

Our Perimeter Advertising division acquires pitch side, TV-facing panel and LED advertising boards from the UK and foreign football markets, and we sell these rights to brands across the world. It presents an aggregated football advertising solution to companies with a key local, national or international target market and a desire for low cost, low wastage and high coverage advertising. Our people have been at the centre of the perimeter advertising market for the last two decades and we are the largest exclusive rights holder in this space by some distance. We sell packages in just about every major football market in Europe, but the UK remains our core focus, and we remain market leaders.

For clubs and brands we are advisor, consultant, sales house, supplier, client, customer and a fan. Our relationships with clubs in League Two are as important as our relationships with FIFA, UEFA, the FA or the Premier League, which is why we have worked with them all for so long.

Why football?

As domestic and global audience figures continue to swell, the argument for brands to align with football is more powerful and persuasive than ever. Football continues to dominate the back pages, the front pages, TV, radio, the internet, discussions at home or in the office or in school and even politics. And with the commercial football environment more accessible than ever before, with entry points available at any budget level from low-cost advertising to high value sponsorships, football can now offer a realistic solution to just about any brand.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are delighted to be in partnership with SPORTFIVE, it's a relationship we have had for many years and is due to SPORTFIVE's continued professionalism, uncomplicated approach and that they deliver on what they promise... all too rare in this industry.

I have worked with SPORTFIVE for the last 7 years through a number of Rugby League Events from full sponsor branding delivery for the Super League Grand Final at Old Trafford through to the Super League and Rugby League World Cup 2013 press launches. Their attention to detail is second to none, and will always allay any fears you may have as a client. No job is too big or too small for SPORTFIVE and their commitment is always 100%.

SPORTFIVE's ongoing support has been key in helping Epson maximise the ROI we drive from the partnership. Their creativity and knowledge of football has helped to ensure that campaigns feel unique and original, and they are a great asset to the team.

The prestige of the footballers featured is an integral part of our campaign and SPORTFIVE played a key role in recruiting and managing athletes of the highest calibre. The agency has a proven track record in working with top football talent and we are delighted with their work as our chosen partner for this project.

We have worked closely with SPORTFIVE for a number of years on a variety of different commercial deals and have always found them to be excellent to deal with.

Paul Faulkner

SPORTFIVE are great long term partners of Blackburn Rovers and provide the club a full service offering covering LED installation, maintenance, running and sales. They are football marketing professionals and always deliver on their promises.

Simon Williams
Commercial Director
Blackburn Rovers Football Club
SPORTFIVE have supported ERC and its delivery of the Heineken Cup Tournament since the early days of the Competition. The team in Durham have delivered the venue dressing and site management services at numerous group matches since 2004. In addition to this they have also managed and implemented the branding and dressing at Heineken Cup Finals in Murrayfield and the Millennium Stadium. They continue to be both a professional and committed service provider to ERC.

Paul Daniels
Events & Operations
ERC
Following our promotion to the Premier League, the club were inundated with various agencies promising the world and failing to deliver. SPORTFIVE do not fall into that category, they, in our opinion are the market leaders in TV facing advertising boards. They delivered everything they promised and more. Following our relegation they have maintained a high level of communication and professionalism and have continually delivered everything they have promised and more.

Matt Williams
Chief Executive
Blackpool Football Club
I can honestly say that SPORTFIVE were pivotal in facilitating Chelsea Football Club's partnership with Singha Beer. Ben Wells

We appointed SPORTFIVE in 2010 as our Production and Event Service Agency with the responsibility of managing our signage and perimeter rights at all 72 Football League Clubs. Their experience and knowledge of the industry is renowned and from the outset of our Football League Sponsorship SPORTFIVE have delivered as promised. The rebranding of 72 Football League grounds and the dressing of Old Trafford, venue for the Play-Off Finals occurred seamlessly, production, logistics and implementation managed without issue. An agency we can rely upon.

Nottingham Forest has used SPORTFIVE as an agent to help sell advertising round the TV arc for a number of years - longer than some of us can remember! They provide an excellent service and due to the extensive knowledge of the industry it means a great deal of confidence is placed with them when engaging brand advertising around the TV perimeter.

Joe Sharphouse

Perimeter advertising is a great way to get you brand across the nation; TradePoint has used it to build awareness since our brand began in 2009. We have worked with SPORTFIVE over the last 2 seasons and have found them professional and well placed to supply good coverage.

SPORTFIVE provide the at-ground branded inventory on behalf of the Premier League at all 20 Clubs. We rely on their expertise to create and deliver the perimeter board graphics and interview backdrops for our Commercial Partners. They have built up good relationships with the Clubs to ensure they work within our deadlines and are our operational 'eyes and ears' on a match day. I have found them to be a very reliable agency to work with.

Tom Greenwood
Head of Partnerships
The Premier League
I have worked with the team at SPORTFIVE for seven years now and they always deliver fantastic results. When it comes to branding an event, large or small, they will be there from the start, right through to the last minute on event day. A pleasure to work with they are consistently reliable and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
