Contract Negotiation

At Sports Minded contract negotiation is a professional skill and not one limited to the AFL industry.

Therefore, we take a (rounded) approach and have built a team around the manger to ensure we are as well-equipped as we can be to negotiate your contracts.

We believe adding data analytics and professional negotiation experience to your negotiation team, means Sports Minded athletes are the best represented in the industry.

Media is now a major part of the AFL landscape. At Sports Minded our athletes have access to professional media training with experienced journalists, to help ensure our players feel as comfortable as possible in front of a microphone.

Our media connections also provide our players with fantastic opportunities to build their profile and earning capacity throughout their career.

The program evolved from international best practice research and is aimed at ensuring our players develop their mind and their body to ensure they become the best footballers they can be. In every sport around the world the best players are the ones who are happy and having fun.We want to work with our players to ensure they have the best chance to do exactly that.
