Lawrence Stephens Sports and Entertainment team has been shortlisted for the Best Legal Team category at the Global Football Industry Awards.
These awards recognise excellence off the pitch, whether through marketing, sustainability, sponsorship, grassroots development, diversity and inclusion, or investment in the sport. Nominations for these awards were made by professionals across the football industry, recognising the outstanding work and strong relationships that our team is known for.
The Global Football Industry Awards are returning for their second year on 5 November 2026 and will be hosted by global football icons Peter Crouch and Jamie Carragher.
Founded by football players and industry leaders, the Global Football Industry Awards exist to recognise the often-overlooked heroes driving the game’s success behind the scenes. From grassroots initiatives to corporate partnerships, this event shines a well-deserved spotlight on the international business leaders, brands, and innovators who make football’s global impact possible. Judged by a panel of experts from across the game, the awards acknowledge those whose vision, dedication, and leadership are shaping the future of the sport, and we are delighted to be recognised here.
