Manchester City Former Players Association

Structure, Branding and Organisation

Majid and The Football Group worked with the Manchester City Former Players Association as it considered its structure and future around the time of its fortieth anniversary.

Support included branding, organisational work and liaison around the creation of an appropriate structure for the association.

The Work

An association of former players is a genuine organisation with members, responsibilities, an identity and a relationship with a major football club.

  • Organisational structure
  • Brand and visual identity
  • Liaison between stakeholders
  • Positioning around the fortieth anniversary
