SHOULD OWN THE FUTURE OF SPORTS!
Marketplace coming soon!
✦
During an interview with 365 Sports, AthleteNIL Founder, Jason Belzer stated that we are on the verge of the “most active transfer portal in history” supported by “$400M in NIL” transactions.
✦
The market that will have the most impact on the sports industry of tomorrow will be the Athlete’s Market!
✦
It is essential to a fair and equitable future of sports that the potential of Elite NIL-backed athletes be directed toward athlete ownership in the industry.
✦
While many forces wrestle for their share of the new “gold rush” in the sports industry, the true transformative power does not rest in the primary NIL sponsor or donor deals market. It can be found in the secondary market where athletes will make meaningful investments in the future of sports at its very foundation.

A NEW BREED OF INVESTOR
ACCOLADE SPORTS ENTERPRISES WAS FOUNDED TO SUPPORT A
NEW AND POWERFUL GROUP.
OUR CORPORATE MISSION IS DIRECTED AT PROVIDING OPPORTUNITY AND INSPIRATION TO THE NIL-BACKED STUDENT-ATHLETE - A GROWING CLASS OF POWER-BROKERS WHO WE BELIEVE HAVE BEEN SORELY UNDERPREPARED FOR THE STRENGTH AND RESPONSIBILITY THEY NOW POSSESS.

shareholders within them.
“The elite athletes who benefit from this system must be supported in taking the additional step of becoming a source of growth, accountability, and leadership throughout sports.
The market that will have the most impact on the sports industry of tomorrow
will be the Athlete’s Market! “
- Hassan Moore, Founder of ASE

decisions about the products and
services that will Provide benefits

INFLCR’s Year Two report demonstrated that 90,000 athletes, 3,500 teams, and 3,700 businesses had engaged in NIL deals.
✦
If you exclude the Top 30 Athletes (who all have NIL valuations in excess of $1M), the remaining 70 athletes on the On3 NIL Top 100 have a cumulative NIL valuation of $52.8M.
✦
The definition of the “NIL Elite” can easily be expanded to include athletes in the Top 1,000 - whose collective buying power ranges in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
✦
Annually, there are over 8 million high school student athletes, and 60 million kids are registered for youth sports participation.
✦
That means that less than 1% of the total addressable non-pro market can be found in college sports.
