Dame Tracey Elizabeth Anne Crouch DBE (born 24 July 1975) is a British Conservative Party politician who served as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Chatham and Aylesford from 2010 to 2024. Crouch was appointed as Minister for Sport, Civil Society and Loneliness in 2017, but resigned in 2018 due to a delay over the introduction of reduced limits on the stakes of fixed odds betting terminals.
In April 2021, Crouch was appointed to chair a review of English football following the controversy over the proposed European Super League and in response to long-standing concerns about club ownership and financial sustainability in the English game.
Following the review, in November 2021, a final report made ten strategic recommendations for the future of football clubs (PDF). The main one was for the establishment, through legislation, of an Independent Regulator for English Football (IREF).
Crouch is a qualified FA football coach and manages a youth girls' football team.[4][12] She is a keen Tottenham Hotspur fan.
She didn't stand in the 2024 General Election and is now managing director of sport at Hanover Communications.

Fresh from an excellent Leaders Summit at Twickenham, or should we say Allianz Stadium, is a conversation with Gareth Balch, founder and CEO of Two Circles agency about the agreement to buy KORE Software, a deal announced this week.
Two Circles is buying the company from Serent Capital, the private equity firm that bought Kore in 2018. Earlier this year, Two Circles themselves sold a majority stake in their business to private equity firm Charterhouse Capital Partners, a transaction which valued the company at £250million. More recently, the company secured external investments from Otro Capital and David Blitzer’s Bolt Ventures.
So, what have they bought, why and what does it mean, for Two Circles and for a sports industry seeking to predict the future shape of the agency sector.

The ECB is currently seeking investors for The Hundred franchises, the short form cricket competition and are selling a 49% stake that values them at up to £150m each. Today’s guest Lalit Modi disagrees. The founder of the Indian Premier League explains exclusively to Unofficial Partner why: “Based on the information memorandum a 100% stake in a team would be between £5m and £9m [for] outside London teams, and maximum, if one really wants a trophy asset, is London teams closer to £25m.”
Earlier this year, Modi was involved in a $1bn (£747m) offer to buy the entire competition – with the intention of turning it into a T20 tournament – which was rebuffed. When an unrelated bid of £400m for a 75% stake was also rejected last year Richard Thompson, the ECB’s chairman, said it would take a bid of “a few billion” to convince them to sell.Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

Today, we're launching a brand new show called Expected Goals, hosted by Matt Cutler and Maggie Murphy.
Together Matt and Maggie will explore the business of women's football.
Matt Cutler is the former editor of SportBusiness and was Director of Communications at Two Circles. As the head of Unofficial Partner Productions, Matt led on our hit series, The Pirates Versus The Premier League and the more recent Last Orders, on football's relationship with the pub.
So he's the perfect person to be running the show alongside Maggie Murphy. Maggie was formally chief executive officer of Lewes Football Club and has been one of the most outspoken and most interesting contributors to the debate on the evolution of professional women's football over the last five years or more. She was a board member of the FA Women's Super League and Women's Championship Board, as an elected club representative onto that body. Before that she was director of public policy and sport integrity for the Sport Integrity Global Alliance and senior global advocacy manager at Transparency International.
So we're in good hands.
Expected Goals will sit outside of the usual Unofficial Partner channels.
You'll find it on the Sport Social Network and in all the usual places, including Apple, Spotify and your favourite podcast app.
Just search 'Expected Goals'.
If you'd like to contribute questions and queries to the show, get in touch.
You can email Matt at [email protected].

This is a special live episode recorded in the boardroom of the DP World Tour's headquarters at The Wentworth Club on the Friday morning of the BMW PGA Championship, the Tour's flagship event. Around the table were people representing many of the golf industry's key stakeholders from across various parts of the game, including sponsors, media, agencies and governing bodies. As you'll hear, the conversation was a broad one, looking at the commercial value and product-market fit of golf, the changing nature of media consumption, the rise of the golf YouTube creator, the lessons of the LIV Golf disruption and what the game really looks and feels like to women.
You'll hear from speakers including:
Jasmine, The Jazzy Golfer
Hans Christian Meyer, CEO of JLindeberg
Chris Bovey of 160/90
Max Hamilton, Executive Commercial Director, European Tour Group

The 3 stories are:
Why Australia are paying 100million NOT to host The Commonwealth Games- echoes of the late, great Bob Hoskins, who used to tell a story about Brian DePalma paid him a couple of hundred grand not to play Al Capone in The Untouchables. Anyhow, it’s hard to get beyond the ‘What’s the point?’ trope when the CGs is in the headlines. The messaging this week has been around Glasgow getting the games for ‘free’, but - like lunch - I suspect that major quadrennial multisport events are rarely free. Which events will get the bullet, should the event have died with the Queen, will India ever engage properly and isn’t the British Empire a bit, how do we put it, passé?Lego’s F1 deal - Cue outpouring of engaging Gen Alpha chat, with a smattering of hastily Googled facts about the environmental impact of the company’s failure to ‘transition to recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) from acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), which needs about 2kg of petroleum to make 1kg of plastic. ABS is used in about 80% of Lego blocks. “It’s like trying to make a bike out of wood rather than steel,” said Tim Brooks, Lego’s head of sustainability.
1. The race for the IOC big job - aka Bach’s overtures (this doesn’t make any sense but makes me sound like I know about classical music, which I don’t, apart from that theme from the Hovis ad). Six months ago the word on the street was that Seb Coe wasn’t running, and now he is. So, was the word wrong, or did he change his mind? Probably the former. Also, is the Samaranch name an asset or liability in the crusty world of IOC voting membership, the age profile of which makes the Tory party conference look like Coachella. Also, did you know Samaranch really likes crisps, so that’s a mark in the yes column from my pov.Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

Earlier this year, The Football Association has became the first national governing body to mandate training on female health, with Women’s Super League and Championship clubs benefitting from a new league-wide support plan covering pregnancy, the menstrual cycle and pelvic health.
The FA is working in partnership with The Well, specialists in delivering female health strategies across sport and co-founded by our guest today Baz Moffat.
The Well is built on cutting-edge science, expertise and experience. Through community, resources and support for women and those who work closely with women, Baz and her co-founders are bridging the yawning knowledge and research gap that is undermining the potential of women both on
and off the field of play.
UP was introduced to Baz last week at the Women of Union launch event by today's other guest Preeti Shetty, director of Brentford Football Club and founder of Valeur, an online platform that gives women working in the sports industry the data, skills and networks needed to benchmark their salary and pay compensation.

For millions of people, Rick Shiels' YouTube channel is how we watch golf in 2024.
Shiels is our very special guest today.
He started by uploading golf tips to YouTube 12 years ago to attract people to the Trafford Golf Centre in Manchester.
Now there are 900 golf channels on the platform, but only one Rick Shiels, with more than 3 million combined subscribers whose videos have attracted more than three quarters of a billion video views.
So this is a conversation about how we watch and consume sport today and the questions that creators like Rick Shiels are posing for sport's traditional media and event rights holders.
