Super  League, in the framework of its initiatives and activities aiming at the  development of professional football, particularly during these harsh  financial and social conditions, has started a series  of communications and collaborations with top Greek educational  institutions specialising in Sports Management.

The basic  goal of the organising authority is to promote research and education on  specific areas that directly affect football, in order to come to  useful conclusions that will substantially improve  professional football structures in our country.

As a first  step, already since August 2013, Super League collaborates with the  Department of Sports Management from the University of Peloponnese (Mr  Th. Kriemadis and Mr T. Alexopoulos), while at  the same time the President of Super League, Mr Yannis Moralis, and  Competition Director, Mr Mihalis Anagnostou, are in constant  communication with the Departments of Physical Education and Sport  Science of Komotini (Mr D. Gargalianos), of Thessaloniki (Mr  G. Tzetzis), of Trikala (Mr A. Barlas) and of Athens (Mr G. Afthinos),  in order to set a common strategy aiming at the exchange of opinions and  informing all stakeholders about issues regarding the research and  education in football.

Super League  will enhance contacts and information meetings so as the communication  between the organising authority and many educational Institutions will  continue; this communication should also  continue between the educational Institutions in order to implement all  these initiatives aiming at improving professional football structures.

Competition  Director, Mr Mihalis Anagnostou, stated the following: "Research and  education of officials and institutional partners are two of the main  pillars of football development. To this end,  Super League holds a series of meetings with institutional bodies  focusing on sports education, with professors as well as with students  who will be called to staff and manage football structures in our  country. The goal of both parties is to define an integrated  common research and education web-based programme as well as other  initiatives, to the benefit of all institutional partners of Super  League, the educational institutions and also the students focusing on  Sports. The benefits of this  collaboration will be reciprocal and our goal is to continue the  communication and collaboration with the educational Institutions."
