About BR2.
Meet Leo Barnes.

I'm Leo Barnes, the creator behind BR2. Based in Belfast, I’m a football content creator and presenter. I make football videos for fans who love the game as much as I do.

From football debates and challenges to unusual products and experiments, BR2 is about having fun with football and bringing people along for the ride.

Alongside BR2, I’ve done presenting work, bringing my love of football to the microphone and the studio. I enjoy sharing stories, meeting people and making football entertaining on screen.

Meet me on RTÉ's Total Football ↗

Stories beyond football.

Alongside BR2, I work as a presenter. I presented a documentary for Sky Kids Investigates exploring the UK social media ban and what it means for young people.
