Malet's Footy Challenge

Enterprise Challenge

On Tuesday 23rd November 2010 16 Year 9 Malet Lambert students in yellow population took part in the Premier League Enterprise challenge with Hull City AFC. 

The Task
Football clubs are constantly looking at ways to improve communications with fans of all ages. As future fans and potential season ticket holders, young people have been identified by many clubs as a key group to engage with. This year's Challenge question was set by Premier League CEO Richard Scudamore;

“In an ever changing world, your task is to create new and improved communication channels for the club to engage young fans”


Teams of Y9 pupils from our school and Archbishop Sentamu were invited to attend Hull City’s Enterprise Challenge.  After a tour of the stadium, refreshments and a chance for last minute preparations in the corporate hospitality boxes participating students will take centre stage and pitch their presentations to an executive panel of judges having no more than5 minutes in the hot seat.
