Great run down from SportsPro on the big news from the #SportsBiz today. My two favorites are: 1️⃣ The collaboration between Nike (where I was a consultant for a couple years and am now proud alumnus of) and the LEGO Group (who produce amazing products that bring me closer to my two young sons). 2️⃣ The positive agreement coming out of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) which will see their players get a boost in pay. This is one of THE leagues to watch in the coming years. Lots of positive momentum there including the “Derek Throneburg boost” that every org gets when he joins. :)
