The sport’s new strategic consultants have put forward proposals that, if approved next month, will come into full effect in 2023.
The five areas cover a number of key metrics such as supporter-base size, on-field performance, finance, facilities and catchment area. In more detail, IMG’s grading structure reads:
FANDOM (25%): Encouraging clubs to attract more fans in stadia, at home and digitally, and to improve fan engagement, contributing to both club and central revenues.
PERFORMANCE (25%): Incentivising clubs to perform on the field and drive fan awareness and engagement. Teams will be ranked between one and 36 based on where they finish in the leagues for the previous three seasons. Bonus points will be awarded to teams who win league and cup competitions in the previous season.
