With traditional media companies struggling to hold onto audience share, and marketers under pressure to build their brands and ROI, sports marketing holds enormous opportunity. Sports content continues to draw huge audiences for big-budget mass marketing. But it can also deliver countless opportunities for one-to-one connections with fans—from the biggest stadiums and arenas across the country to the local playing field around the corner.

It's a half day of training and sponsorship coaching to build your brand muscle through sports.
