FAQS

Which languages do you translate?I translate French, Spanish and Catalan into English, helping football clubs, federations, media organisations and sports businesses communicate clearly with English-speaking audiences.As a native English translator with specialist football knowledge, I ensure every translation reads naturally while preserving the tone, terminology and intent of the original.Do you work with football clubs?Yes. I have worked directly with football clubs, federations and sports organisations, as well as through leading translation agencies on large-scale multilingual projects.My experience covers a wide range of football content, from club communications and editorial features to subtitling, marketing material and digital content.Can you translate marketing material?Absolutely. I translate marketing and promotional content that engages football audiences while remaining faithful to your brand voice.This includes website copy, social media content, sponsorship material, campaigns, newsletters, player profiles, promotional videos and other communications designed to connect with supporters, partners and international audiences.Do you translate interviews and video content?Yes. I regularly translate interviews, press conferences and other football-related audiovisual content.Alongside document translation, I have extensive experience producing subtitles using professional cloud-based subtitling platforms, ensuring secure workflows and accurate, high-quality subtitles for digital and broadcast content.Do you use CAT tools?Yes. For document translation, I use SDL Trados Studio, the industry-standard computer-assisted translation (CAT) software.CAT tools don't translate the text for the translator. Instead, they help maintain consistency across terminology, names and recurring phrases, which is especially valuable for clubs, federations and organisations with established style guides. They also improve efficiency on large projects while ensuring quality remains consistent from start to finish.For subtitling projects, I work with professional cloud-based platforms that provide secure collaboration and safeguard project data throughout the production process.What are your turnaround times?Turnaround times depend on the size and complexity of the project, but I understand that football rarely works to a nine-to-five schedule.As a guide:Up to 1,000 words or approximately 20 minutes of video can often be delivered on the same day, subject to availability.
Larger projects are scheduled according to your deadline and project requirements.
Urgent requests are always welcome, and I'll do my best to accommodate them whenever possible.If you have a tight deadline, get in touch and I'll let you know how quickly I can help.Why choose a specialist football translator?Football has its own language, culture and rhythm. Translating it accurately requires more than linguistic ability; it requires an understanding of the game itself.With over eight years' professional translation experience and hands-on coaching experience, I understand football terminology, tactical concepts and the way clubs and media communicate. Whether you're publishing a match report, launching a marketing campaign or subtitling an interview, you'll receive English that sounds authentic, engaging and written for football audiences.
