Howden European football injury index 2022/23

As seen on Bloomberg, BBC, ESPN and The Times, the report, designed for the Howden Professional Sport team is Howden’s 3rd annual Men’s European football injury index covering the 2022/23 season, and has been gaining global recognition since its launch in November 2023. 

This 144-page hard back report marked the first major project undertaken across the business following the new Howden brand guidelines, and plays heavily on the inaugural winter FIFA Men’s World Cup, which resulted in an overall increase in injury severity for the players involved from the top five European leagues.

The inclusion of intuitive visuals like trend graphs, injury heat maps, and cost analysis charts made the report’s sophisticated data digestible and engaging for a wide audience. The report has recently been honoured with the 'Best Data Story or Data Visualisation' award at the prestigious DataIQ Awards, a proud achievement for the Howden Professional Sports team and myself.
