About us

We build it, hand it to children,
and listen.

We think we know a few things about football and games. But the real validation comes from testing Trivela FC with kids..... we've had a lot of fun watching them break it, ask for matches to be like FIFA, and tell their parents they played a game rather than doing maths.

“It started with building a basic football maths game in Excel for my son so I could get out of homework duty! He started asking to play it, his friends also played it and my brother (a teacher) said you've got to build it properly.”

“I developed football models to predict matches and value players, built two football games companies, and I've been on the pitch or touchline most weeks for the last 40 years. Now I'm using that same maths-first approach to help children build confidence with number facts.”

“There is nothing more important than giving all kids the confidence to take on the challenges of the new world. Maths is fundamental — it's a part of everyday life and a pre-requisite for most career choices. If we can support schools, teachers and parents to help kids master the basics, we've won.”
