Why Career Guidance?
In the world of sports, we’ve all heard the horror stories—athletes who reach the pinnacle of success on the field, only to struggle financially and professionally once their playing days are over. Many fail to transition successfully into life beyond sports, lacking the skills, financial literacy, and career planning necessary for long-term success. Without early preparation and the right guidance, even the most talented athletes can face uncertain futures. Career guidance is essential to help athletes pre-plan for life after sports, manage their finances, and make informed decisions about their personal brand and professional path. At L.I.G. Sports Group, we prepare athletes to not only succeed in their sport but to thrive in their careers and lives beyond the field, ensuring their legacy extends far past their final game.

Oliver Luck
Former XFL Commissioner, NCAA EVP Regulatory Affairs
One of the first hires that I made was Justin King, who joined the football operations group at the XFL. Justin was an excellent employee with superb inter-personal skills and a great work ethic. He interacted on a daily basis with our coaches, referees, players, agents and football staff members such as equipment managers, athletic trainers, etc . . . He was forthright in all of his activity and quite dependable in terms of ˋgetting things done´.
Doug Whaley
Former SVP of XFLBills General Manager
Justin’s greatest strength is his ability to navigate and effectively integrate complex systems while managing the multitude of personalities in the athletic industry, which is a rare and very impactful trait.
