Commercial representation for athletes

Careers built to last.

You bring the performance. We build the business behind it: sponsors, brand partners and a plan that outlasts any single season.

The gap

Your performance can move faster than your commercial career.

You can win, break records and grow an audience, and still have no plan, one-off deals and brands in your DMs with no one to answer them.

Legacy exists to close that gap.

How it works

From the next result to the next ten years.

  1. 01

    Discover

    We get to know you: your sport, your audience, your story and where you're heading.

  2. 02

    Position

    We define what makes you valuable to brands, and which brands it's valuable to.

  3. 03

    Connect

    We find the partners that fit and approach them. No spray-and-pray.

  4. 04

    Negotiate

    We protect your value, shape the terms and close the deal.

  5. 05

    Build

    We manage the partnership and plan the next three years, not just the next deal.

About

We've stood where you stand.

Legacy is built by former professional athletes. When our own sporting careers ended, we took the same discipline into business, and learned what an athlete's name, story and work ethic are really worth.

We never stopped moving. Today it's marathons, long days on the bike and cross-country skiing before work. The finish lines changed. The drive didn't.

So we know both sides: what it takes to perform, and what it takes to build something that lasts beyond it.

FAQ

Good questions.

Who do you represent?

Athletes and sports creators whose performance, audience or story is growing faster than their commercial opportunities. We represent the commercial side only: sponsorships, partnerships and endorsements. Not playing contracts or transfers.

Which sports do you work with?

Any. Runners, footballers, cyclists, fighters, skiers, swimmers, golfers, fitness athletes and more. What matters is ambition and commercial potential, not the sport.

Do I need to be a professional?

No. Plenty of elite amateurs and up-and-coming athletes have real commercial value. There's no minimum follower count either.

Do you represent creators and influencers?

Yes, if sport is at the centre of what you do.

What does it cost?

No monthly retainer. We earn a commission on deals we close for you. The exact rate depends on the type of representation and is agreed in writing before we start.

Do you require exclusivity?

For full representation, we typically ask to be your commercial partner for sponsorships and brand deals. Exactly what's covered is discussed openly and agreed in writing before anything is signed.

Can I keep my current manager or agent?

Yes. We can work alongside them, or just on individual deals.

Where do you work?

Internationally. We work with athletes and brands across borders, and we follow our athletes wherever their sport takes them.

What happens after I apply?

We read every application personally. If there's a fit, we'll set up a conversation to get to know you. If not now, we'll tell you honestly.
