Maths to Matchday: Data Analysis in Modern Football: Branch Talk and AGM


Guest Speaker:

Grace Brandon

Summary

Grace will be talking about her role as a Data Analyst at a Championship Football Club and how she can help support decision making across multiple areas of the club’s operations including commercial, staffing, performance analysis and physical monitoring. Drawing on what her degree taught her along with her experience within the industry, Grace is hoping to demonstrate how models, visualisations, analytical techniques and some small coding knowledge have helped her transform complex data into actionable insights that can help the club gain a competitive advantage on and off the pitch.

Branch AGM (5.15pm)

We invite all interested parties to attend the second Annual General Meeting of the IMA Yorkshire branch. Since its inception in July 2024, we have worked to establish a committee, run a series of talks and events, and begin planning of future events. Our activities are currently centred around Sheffield given the composition of the inaugural committee. We invite interested members of the mathematical community to hear about our work and volunteer to become involved. In particular, we are seeking members from outside academia, including education, industry and government, across the Yorkshire region.
