WISH I HAD KNOWN (WIHK) SPONSORSHIPS
NCAA has made headlines by directing schools to pay college athletes. There are 500,000+ of those students in the US. But Little League baseball, Pop Warner football, and an infinite number of youth hockey and soccer leagues means that most families are involved in youth sports. This industry can be rewarding and lucrative to some; confusing, exhausting and non-profitable to most. Parents need help & guidance. World’s Best Connectors (WBC) can help with its educational offerings beginning in 2025.
