WHY START BEFORE COLLEGE
Most students only see a fraction of the industry.
​
The finite number of teams. The shiny object.
​
But behind the teams are dozens of business sectors, hundreds of career paths, and thousands of companies that work with the world's biggest teams and athletes.
​
This masterclass shows your student where the best opportunities really are, where their specific skills and passions fit best, and how to start preparing before college.​​​​​
