It was more than networking — it was a night of storytelling, strategy and proof that athletes bring leadership, discipline, and drive wherever they go.

Expanding the Gameplan: Athlete Networking Mixer 1.0
Our inaugural mixer was more than just a networking night — it was a starting point. Athletes across different sports and stages of transition came together to share stories, gain clarity and connect with people who’d walked similar paths. From meaningful conversations to new relationships, the event proved there’s power in athlete-to-athlete support.
"This event was incredible... hearing similar stories from people confirmed the belief that I'm not the only one going through difficult situations."
- Jamal Campell, 8 Year CFL Veteran
