Working alongside the PCA’s team of Personal Development Managers, Clay and the PDMs will facilitate and run educational sessions to players, making sure that they are being helped with their tax and accountancy queries.

PCA Commercial Director, Rob Smyth, said: “I’m delighted to partner with Clay GBP, this will enable us to ensure sound tax and accounting advice is delivered to our members.
“Given the diverse contractual situations of members, careers have never been as complex, with earning opportunities at home and around the world, meaning sound advice in this space is so vital.
“The PCA is committed to educating and supporting our members and this partnership with Clay will help support their tax and accountancy educational needs.”
Clay GBP Partner, Jasdeep Sami, said: “After being approached by the PCA, we were excited to learn that there is such a great demand from players to learn and understand more about their own personal tax affairs. Taxation is becoming increasingly more complex, as new rules are introduced, and existing rules are changed and updated. Therefore, it is as important as ever for individuals to have the knowledge to be able to navigate through the tax landscape and make more informed decisions.
“Each players’ circumstances are unique, whether they are currently playing, retired or in the process of starting their career. Here at Clay GBP we have a collaborative approach with clients, where we can work with you to find solutions to fit your own personal circumstances – leaving you to get on with what you do best.
“We are delighted to have this opportunity to work alongside the PCA and are very eager to get started!”
