The author examines these men's sporting experiences during three life phases: As professional schoolboy footballers; as professionals; and during retirement and career transition to mainstream careers. In doing so, this book expands on how these men's experiences of and preparedness for retirement and career transition are influenced and often complicated by the cultures, practices, and expectations that shaped the professional game when they were players. It also offers an account of the ways these experiences were complicated by issues of race. Researchers, students, sports enthusiasts and anyone interested in questions of race, masculinity, employment, retirement, mental health, and professional sport in late modern Britain will find Education, Retirement and Career Transitions for 'Black' Ex-Professional Footballers useful, informative and engaging. 410 0$aEmerald points. 606 $aAthletes, Black$xRetirement$zGreat Britain 606 $aSoccer players$xRetirement$zGreat Britain 606 $aSports & Recreation$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aBall games$2bicssc 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 615 0$aAthletes, Black$xRetirement 615 0$aSoccer players$xRetirement 615 7$aSports & Recreation$xGeneral. 615 7$aBall games. 676 $a796.3 700 $aCampbell$b Paul$01092250 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793943803321 996 $aEducation, retirement and career transitions for 'Black' ex-professional footballers$93855703 997 $aUNINA
