👉🏻The UK is facing what charities like @beatED are calling an ED epidemic, with an estimated 1.25 million people affected 👉🏻These conditions have the highest mortality rate of any mental health illness, but within sport, EDs often go undetected and unchallenged.

From elite athletes to amateurs, eating disorders are too often praised as ‘discipline’.

Charging Matt Petgrave for this offence would have had massive implications on all sports. I’m relieved to hear that all criminal investigation has been withdrawn. No criminal charges for Matt Petgrave over death of Nottingham Panther Adam Johnson -

Adam Johnson died after being hit in the neck by an opponent's skate during a match between Sheffield Steelers and Nottingham Panthers

Great workshop today with @SilverwoodVS - We shared field notes of our research and the ‘mess’ involved in writing, and students analysed video footage of fighting on the court, pitch and the ice 🥊 🏀 #fieldnotes #analysis #teaching #criminology #sports

Drew a lot from the experiences of #ptg2024 in the ‘Power, abuse & control in sport’ Sports Criminology lecture with @SilverwoodVS - including handouts of the power & control wheel from @survivorsarmy for students. Excellent resource for all levels of sport

“We have to stop saying thank you to people being interested in women’s sport”. Had a good cry watching this. We have seen some incredible impact of investment & platforms. This is can be done in the small things: a share of a page, buying tickets at local games. It all matters.
❤️ So many incredible early responses to ‘Game On’ tonight. Hadn’t realised just how emotional it would make people feel. It’s on Netflix right now. Do let us know what you think. The link is here ⬇️ https://t.co/IfhIcIuhF3

Also raised the importance of groups like @ProgressiveRug who rally for change, putting these player experiences forward. Consent to action, and understanding what sports and impact can entail (including all levels of play from grassroots to professional) is key.

Engaging presentation from @SUSocialScience @swanseauni @silverwoodvs on consent to violence in ice hockey discussing her 16 years of work with professional hockey players. Voices of athletes are important & we mustn’t overlook variation of harm involved @playthegame_org #ptg2024

An insightful documentary by @Zoe_Flood which shines an important light on exploitation, harm and addition in betting. “Betting is not a victimless crime” is a key point that needs to be reiterated #ptg2024 #PlayTheGame #betting #sportsbetting
