To overcome this challenge, we use data from professional soccer, where employees of the same club face different external career opportunities de- pending on their nationality. We test whether the career prospect of being selected to a Euro Cup national team affects players' pre-Cup performances, using nationals of countries that did not participate in the Euro Cup as a control group. We find that the Euro Cup career prospect has positive effects on the performances of play- ers with intermediate chances of being selected to their national team, but negative effects on the performances of players whose selection is very probable.

    EUROPEAN ORGANISATION OF PRISON AND CORRECTIONAL SERVICES EUROPEAN PRISON REGIME FORUM WEBINAR 13 APRIL 2021 Speaker Introduction Presentation Synopsis INTRODUCTION TO THE TWINNING PROJECT This presentation will introduce participants to the Twinning Project and how it is making positive changes to the lives of prisoners through the power of football. The Twinning Project was co-founded by Mr David Dein MBE and Jason Swettenham from HMPPS. The purpose of the project is to partner or ‘twin’ prisons with professional football clubs in England and Wales to allow them to deliver coaching qualifications to offenders – at no cost to the MoJ. The project was launched on 31st October 2018 at Wembley Stadium. All 20 Premier League and 72 English Football League Clubs (EFL), the FA, League Managers Association, Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) and the Referees Association have endorsed the Twinning Project. Since its inception the Twinning Project has twinned 62 prisons with their nearest Premier League and English Football League (EFL) clubs. The aim of the project is the engage prisoners in football-based programmes to improve their mental and physical health, well-being and to obtain a qualification which will help improve their life chances and opportunities to gain employment on release. Professional football clubs and the Football Association (FA) use the experience of their coaches and referees, and the power of their brands, to engage the disengaged. Many prisoners have had a poor educational experience and develop a resistance to learning and exercise. The Twinning Project uses football to break down barriers and uses sport as a catalyst for change.
