Cambridge, United Kingdom, March 18, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Goodson, who was the satellite company's first interactive editor, has an extensive career in journalism and new media at a senior level.

He said: "I am delighted to be joining MotivatEd. The youth online market is a rapidly expanding growth area and represents a wonderful opportunity for football clubs and other sports organisations to harness the tremendous interest young people have in sport."
