Representing talent is the foundation of our business. Our client-first philosophy allows us to serve the world’s best athletes and most recognizable talent in their pursuit of excellence, however they define it.
Through our full-service management approach, our clients can focus on performing at the top of their game while we work to support their personal goals and amplify their profiles off the ice.
From contract negotiation, performance development and career management to endorsement portfolios, brand building and personal services—as part of the Excel Family, we take a consultative approach with each individual client to develop a game plan for success.
