For the very first ‘What’s The Deal With Sports’ Episode, we’re talking about the NFL’s International Player Pathway Programme AKA The IPP / IPPP. The IPP allows some of the world's best athletes to switch sports and try to make it to American Football's big time! Tom Ochoa & Dave Birch explain and discuss the following. What is the IPP? Who runs it? How does it work? What high profile athletes have joined the programme and who have ultimately forged a career in the NFL. We really hope you enjoyed this episode. There will be a new episode every week, so please let us know what deals and ongoing events within sport you’d like us to talk about.
