Reminiscing on an amazing Euros watch-along! Last Wednesday, we collaborated with Brown Girl Sport to open our offices for the Euros semi-final. Brown Girl Sport is an online platform and community founded to celebrate South Asian women and girls in sport and together we set up an alcohol-free space at the studio to connect, eat, and watch football. The turnout was amazing, the food was great, and the vibes were immaculate. Thank you to Abi Patel and the SI Diversity team for their great work setting up the event!

So proud of the entire team at Sports Interactive and all those who have been on the journey with us over the last 30 years. We couldn't have won this without all of you - even those we didn't like very much 😅 When Ov & Paul started this all back in the 90's there was no idea that we would become what we have done. All of us were kids having fun, making games for us that it just so happened there was an audience for. There were no 5 year plans, honestly there wasn't even a 1 year plan, but we learnt as we went and seem to have done alright, growing organically to help us achieve our goals of making the best football management simulations on the planet. Gutted that I wasn't there myself to pick up the award and share some words of gratitude (I've got Covid) but Matt Carroll did a brilliant job, as he always does. When you get "lifetime achievement awards" it's normally when you've retired. Not in our case. Here's to the next 30 years! https://lnkd.in/gwJFBwZj

Proud to extend our partnership with AFC Wimbledon into the 2024/25 season. Even more proud to give this front-of-shirt space to another longstanding partner of ours in War Child, as they promote their mission to protect, educate and stand up for the rights of children affected by war. “Despite it being a year where we’ve changed our studio and game logos, our overriding feeling was that War Child needs the promotion for their work more than we do. At SI, we try to consider the bigger picture in everything we do and that’s why we’ve handed over the front of the shirt to their logo rather than ours."
We are delighted to reveal our Umbro home kit for the upcoming season, in the Club's traditional blue with a yellow trim. War Child are proudly featured front and centre of the shirt in a gesture driven by our longstanding principal partner Sports Interactive (SI).
