Arne graduated with a degree in Sports Management in 2025. He progressed into a role as an Account Manager for Sandhills East, before landing his current role as an SMB Account Manager at Deliveroo.

I started at UA92 when I was 17 due to being an international student, and I chose to do an accelerated degree as I wanted to get into the world of work as quickly as possible, meaning I graduated when I was only 19! I secured a role at Sandhills East before I even graduated.”

Bader studied Sports Management, graduating in 2024. He is now Co-Founder and Sporting Director of Phoenix United FC.

“Studying at UA92 was a huge two years for me, as I stopped playing football professionally and I needed to find my way again. The environment at UA92 really helped me do that. Whilst I was studying, I was working on my business, which I run full time now. My tutors were massively supportive and allowed me to do this. The quality of my learning was a real catalyst for progression and now I’m the youngest Sporting Director of a professional football club in the world. Outside of my academic study, I won Sportsperson of the Year, achieving two consecutive promotions for UA92’s football team.”

“UA92 was so much more than just lectures and work, it was a journey of growth, challenges and unforgettable memories with amazing people. Before I joined UA92, I never would have believed I’d go to uni, let alone achieved a first in my degree. Throughout my UA92 journey, I had the opportunity to grow both academically and professionally, from publishing the UA92 Ignition Magazine, to presenting the first Women In Sport conference and gaining practical experience through an internship over the summer at Lancashire Cricket Club. When I completed my studies, I secured a role as at Lancashire Cricket Club as a Junior Conference and Events Coordinator, before being promoted to Business Development Support.

During my time there, I worked 3 internships, got to the national finals of a business competition and helped shape a professional footballs club policy. If it wasn’t for the tremendous resources, support & opportunities for growth at UA92 I would not be in the position I’m in today.

Still over a year on from my departure, I don’t go a day without thinking about how grateful I am to be on this journey and that UA92 put me on the right track.”
