Stage 04

Legacy

After the game. Beyond the pitch.

The career is short. What follows it does not have to be. This is the part of the job that outlasts everything else we do.

Why this matters

Most playing careers end in the early thirties. Almost everyone who retires moves into media, and a great many of them do it because they need the income rather than because they want the job.

That pattern is the reason this agency exists in the form it does. A career that produced real money should not end with someone taking whatever work is available.

Education before anything else

We make sure a player understands what happens to what they earn, long before the numbers become large enough to do damage. What tax is. What an agent is paid. What a contract actually guarantees and what it does not.

A seventeen year old who understands his own money is in a far stronger position than one who is told not to worry about it.

Regulated partners, where advice is needed

Where proper financial advice is required, we introduce regulated partners and stay in the room so the player is never on his own with it.

Beyond the playing career

Coaching, business, property, education, media on their own terms. We start those conversations years before they are needed, because the options are much wider at twenty-six than at thirty-four.

“We’re looking out for the player beyond their playing career.”
