About | Elliott Stockdale Thurlow

The Early Years

Born in Nottingham but raised in Belgium. Elliott had a very different upbringing. With his first language being French for the first decade of his life, he lived in a small town outside of Brussels called La Hulpe. Due to family circumstances, he returned to the United Kingdom in late 2009 and has remained there since. His first experience of broadcasting came in 2017 when he became an audio descriptive commentator for Alan March Sport at Nottingham Forest. Following this, he went on to study Football Journalism at the University of Derby where his career began an upward trajectory.

His Career So Far

Once graduated with a strong 2:1, Elliott went full time with Alan March Sport.

This led him to Qatar for the FIFA World Cup as one of the lead commentators, to Portugal for the IBSA Goalball and across England for the UEFA Women's Euros.

Having amassed over 300 games on the mic, as well as presenting and interviewing on live TV, Elliott is constantly on the lookout for new and fresh opportunities in and out of his comfort zone.
