The workshop was very simple, but it was helpful, in the sense, that until you start to consider your interests and put them down on paper you almost take them for granted. The session was revealing personally because it highlighted sport as a core interest of mine. Something which was picked up on by friends in the session. We began to discuss football as a line of study for me to consider. At first I was reluctant to consider this, but everyone was adamant that I should look at it. I was encouraged that it was it was a rich an interesting subject, that has real potential. Inspired by this I generated the brainstorm below. Im keen to look at football closely and see where it goes.
