Matt Goodman is the Group Managing Director at Active Future, as well as a PhD candidate by publication at Northumbria University. 


In this podcast Matt discusses: 


  • How longevity is his main score of success. 


  • The unexpected success of "Fortnite" style activity classes in terms of uptake and individual activity. 


  • The decline of ability for free play in youth/children. 


  • His theory on whether the popularity of digital games in our youth is due to adult interference in organised sport. 


  • Some tidbits of his research so far.
