"Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where there was once only despair."
- Nelson Mandela
Tim Claiborne
I'm Tim Claiborne and I use the power of sports to create connection, opportunity, and impact. My team supports former athletes who have chosen entrepreneurship and investment as their next sport, helps sports brands create business relationships with athletes, and provides opportunities for those looking to expand their influence in the sports industry. All of our programs help fund Pro Athletes Helping Kids, our non-profit organization that expands opportunities for athlete to use their platform to positively impact the lives of children. As my mentor and business partner David Meltzer would say, people join our team to "make a lot of money, help a lot of people, and have a lot of fun!"
"Success is a team sport. Success takes a team; failure we can do alone" - Simon Sinek
I've failed too many times in life because I did things alone. Great accomplishments only happen through teamwork. Sports provides the perfect example of powerful synergy created when those with a common goal come together and leverage their unique talents and abilities. Our unique abilities can only be developed when we play our position and depend on our teammates to play theirs. More than most people, I have a need for teammates in my life. I was born with a very unique brain, and both my strengths and weaknesses are extreme. My teammates allow me to excel by living in my strength and picking me up where I am not strong. I've built a super team around me and invite you to join us and unlock your full potential by doing the same!
