The exhibition is free and open from 12pm-2pm every weekday except Tuesdays, from 28 September to 30 October.
Success on the pitch is never achieved by the players and coaches alone. Behind every performance is a dedicated team of people working away from the spotlight, providing the expertise, care, organisation and commitment that allows players and teams to perform at their best.
Commissioned by the University's Director of Football Richard Allen, the photographs in this exhibition celebrate the team behind the teams at Loughborough University. Taken by photographer Becca Taylor during the 2025/26 season, they document the important contributions made by staff, students and volunteers in creating a successful environment for Loughborough Students Football including Loughborough Students Cerebral Palsy Team, Loughborough Lightning Football and Loughborough Students Futsal.
Some roles are highly visible, many are not. From preparation and performance support to analysis, medical care, operations and communications, the photographs reveal the people and moments that can easily go unnoticed but are fundamental to life on the pitch.
Becca Taylor is a sports and documentary photographer with a passion for capturing the emotion, energy and stories behind sport. Her work spans grassroots and competitive sport, focusing on authentic, often unseen moments that reveal the experiences of athletes, teams and sporting communities.
The exhibition will have an additional opening on Friday 9 October, 6pm-9pm as part of Lboro Lates. This event is an evening of free exhibitions, open studios and creative experiences across Loughborough, which allows visitors and residents to explore the town’s thriving creative scene.
