Research from the Sports Peoples Think Tank shows efforts to get more football coaches from a Black Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) background are not progressing as hoped. A study compiled by Loughborough University and the Fare Network shows only four per cent of coaches at Englands 92 Premier League and EFL clubs are from a minority.At the time the study concluded, on September 1, only three managers - Brightons Chris Hughton, QPRs Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Keith Curle of Carlisle - represented BAME, and Hasselbaink has been fired from his role since then. Similar figures were found for assistant managers (three from 92 clubs), first-team head coaches (five from 67), reserve or senior development coaches (four from 64), professional U18 development lead coaches (three from 89) and academy directors (two from 89). QPRs Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink was the third BAME manager until his recent dismissal The report also found that only 17 out of 92 professional clubs employ a BAME coach and 25 per cent of those employed are on the staffs at QPR and Brighton.That meant an overall figure of 20 BAME representatives from 493 employed senior coaches - a ratio of 4.1 per cent.The figure, while remaining fairly constant from the 2015 report, is some way short of the 20 per cent target set for the year 2020 by the Sports Peoples Think Tank two years ago.

How can we lobby and assist the football authorities to deliver a genuinely level playing field for all those wishing to coach and manage at the elite level.

Our findings simply do not back this up, if effective action is not taken we face the same situation in the decades to come.We believe that to encourage diversity in coaching leadership will inform and improve coaching methods, help the development of players, and their on-field performance.
