NFL UK
The NFL faces a decision on how to continue efforts to grow its fanbase in the UK. The decision needs to take into account lessons learned from previous NFL activities in Europe, market research on the UK sports fan and the implications of any move on the U.S. fan. Moreover, the decision should be couched within the broader context of the NFL's goal to expand internationally. Alistair Kirkwood, head of NFL UK, and Chris Parsons, VP of NFL International, must propose a course of action that the London-based team can both execute and that will receive the approval of the NFL's commissioner and owners.
