Simply put, we connect businesses and professional athletes for business development opportunities. Many businesses (both national and regional) value the relationships athletes have with their peers and their fans, and view them as a great channel to market their products and services. However, it’s often confusing and expensive to navigate their environment, or to guarantee that your messages are delivered to your intended recipient. We cut through the uncertainty and frustration of how to DIRECTLY contact pro athletes.

"I spent my whole career building relationships with people in the business world to make sure I would transition out of the NFL with ease. The one thing I forgot was how powerful all of my relationships with guys I played with could be. ProPlayer Connect allowed me to reach out to guys I played with over 12 years and use their knowledge and experience to better form my business plan and services that I offer. Let’s face it, as current and active athletes, we need to watch out for each other in building second careers…this site allows that to happen."
