YGOR SANTOS

FAN ENGAGEMENT OFFICER

Since January 2024, I’ve had the pleasure of serving as the Fan Engagement Officer at Northampton Town FC Community Trust. Before taking on this role, I started my journey with the Community Trust as a Multiply Mentor.

Alongside my fan engagement responsibilities, I also coach within our Women’s and Girls’ Programme. With over eight and a half years of experience in elite athletics, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to my coaching role. My background in strength and conditioning and elite sports has equipped me with a unique perspective on athlete development.

Currently, I’m involved with the Women and Girls Elite programme, where I get to channel my passion for coaching into empowering young athletes. It’s incredibly rewarding to help shape the future of the sport and nurture the next generation of talent.
