Ten years ago, there were very few athletes in Australia who had their own managers. The introduction of pay-per-view television led to the production and showing of more sport programs and events on television and a number of athletes at the top end of their sport appointed managers.
While opportunities for AFL footballers increased during this period, it was the elite sportsmen and women in Olympic sports who also made the most of their opportunities. Olympians and potential Olympians were embraced by the business community and negotiated endorsements with local, national and multi-national organisations. The athletes used the corporate support to lift their own profiles as well as the profile of their sport.
Aquatic Management Group has previously provided outstanding athlete management services to athletes including Brooke Hanson, Matt Cowdrey and Michelle Engelsman. The athlete management services offered by Aquatic Management Group have ceased for the time being.
