Media, PR, Entertainment & Digital

Sports & Athlete Management

Career representation, endorsement deals, media relations and community programmes for professional athletes.

Overview

An athletic career is short and the commercial window inside it is shorter. The athletes who build something lasting are the ones who treat brand, media and community work as part of the job rather than a distraction from it.

We represent athletes commercially: endorsements, appearances, media, community programmes and the reputation management that protects all three.

What is included

  • Career representation and commercial strategy
  • Endorsement and sponsorship negotiation
  • Brand partnership development
  • Media relations and press management
  • Appearance and speaking bookings
  • Community outreach and charitable programmes
  • Social and digital presence management
  • Post-career transition planning

Questions

Before you enquire

Do you handle playing contracts?
We work on the commercial side: endorsements, media and brand. Playing contracts sit with a licensed sports agent, and we coordinate with yours.
At what stage should an athlete start?
Earlier than most do. Building an audience during the playing career is what makes the post-career phase viable.
Do you work with teams and federations?
Yes, on communications, sponsorship and community programmes.
