Milestone 1: Comprehensive Intake & Athlete Profiling

Capturing the full scope of background, academic status, and personal network. The initial process begins with compiling a detailed athlete profile to establish who the athlete is, what your current and future goals are, and your requirements for success.

• Personal & Family Context: Primary contacts, family/support structure, legal guardians (if minor), home region, and background checks.

• Athletic & Physical Metrics: Height, weight, wingspan, position(s), official combine metrics, injury history, and medical clearances.

• Academic & Collegiate Status: Current school/program, school classification size (Power 4, Mid-Major, JuCo, High School), GPA, NCAA Transfer Portal status, and eligibility windows.

• Professional & On-Court Accolades: League/conference honors, stat lines, tournament awards, all-star selections, and international competition history.

Milestone 2: Needs Assessment & Representation Scope Selection: Defining custom representation pillars based on career stage

Guardian Sports Group aligns specific service modules tailored to the athlete's current transition phase (High School to College, Portal/Transfer, or College to Pro). We meet with you to discuss you, who you are and where you're planning to go, everything is discussed to enable the possibilities.

• NIL & Commercial Representation: Brand identity development, regional/national deal structuring, social media monetization, and compliance tracking.

• Professional Player Representation: Domestic (NBA/WNBA/G-League) and international contract negotiations, training camp invite procurement, and team workouts.

• Educational & Transfer Placement: Navigating NCAA portal dynamics, school fit analysis, JuCo-to-NCAA transitions, and academic eligibility support.

• Overseas Pathway Development: FIBA agency network utilization, international club sourcing, visa/work permit support, and contract security.

• Post-Draft & Pre-Draft Preps: Elite training facility placement, pre-draft workout scheduling, showcase camp invitations, and combine preparation.

• Financial & Lifestyle Ecosystem: Coordination with vetted wealth advisors, tax strategists, legal advisory, and insurance/disability protection.

Milestone 3: Strategic Onboarding & Contractual Execution: Formalizing agency partnerships and launching execution strategy

Once services are selected, Guardian Sports Group formalizes representation to initiate active advocacy.

• Standard Agreement Execution: Formally signing Guardian Sports Group representation agreements (NIL, Standard Player Contract agency agreements, or Marketing-only agreements).

• Media Kit & Data Asset Assembly: Producing high-level highlight packages, scouting breakdowns, and brand pitch decks for collegiate programs, pro scouts, or corporate partners.

• Compliance & Legal Registration: Registering agency contracts with relevant collegiate athletic departments, leagues, or international federations.

Milestone 4: Representation Fee & Client Rights Statement

Guardian Sports Group executes the athlete’s customized roadmap, maintaining continuous advocacy through every contract cycle. Our agency exists to maximize the athletic, commercial, and long-term financial success of the athletes we represent. We operate under a transparent, performance-aligned fee model that protects athlete earnings while delivering high-touch, institutional-grade representation:

• Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) Deals: Capped at a maximum of 18%.

• Professional Playing Contracts: Capped at a maximum of 3.2%.

These rate caps ensure our compensation remains directly aligned with actual value created, minimizing fixed financial strain on athletes while providing full-scale strategic support.

Representation Fee Structure

Agreement Type: NIL & Commercial Partnerships Maximum Commission Cap is 18%, Full-service sourcing, deal structuring, brand alignment, contract negotiation, and compliance management.

Agreement Type: Professional Athlete Contracts Maximum Commission Cap is 3.2%, Team-level contract negotiation, roster leverage strategy, salary cap optimization, and union compliance.

Strategic Framework: Maximizing Value While Minimizing Athlete Cost

1. True Value-Add Procurement (NIL)

• Zero Fee on Unassisted Direct Inbound: The 18% NIL cap applies exclusively to deals actively sourced, negotiated, or structured by our team. Pre-existing, organic, or unsolicited opportunities brought directly to the athlete without requiring complex agency deal-making are billed at a reduced rate or exempt from commission.

• Turnkey Operational Support: The commission covers complete legal, administrative, and brand integration costs, ensuring athletes do not incur out-of-pocket overhead for legal reviews or campaign execution.

2. Tiered Scaling & High-Volume Protection

• De-escalating Fee Scales: For high-value NIL deals exceeding defined financial thresholds, our fee percentage automatically scales down. This structure protects the athlete's upside on major institutional partnerships.

• Pro Contract Efficiency: The 3.2% professional playing contract cap reflects industry-standard player association limits. We focus on securing fully guaranteed compensation, roster protection clauses, and long-term financial security rather than extracting disproportionate agent fees from primary athletic earnings.

3. No Passive or Perpetual Deductions

• No Post-Termination Entitlement: Agency fees apply strictly during active representation or for deals executed during the representation term. We reject clauses that attempt to tie agency commissions to future pro playing contracts or non-agency earnings.

• Net Distribution Protection: All commission calculations are based on gross revenues earned directly from negotiated contracts—never on passive revenue, team stipends, or educational benefits.

Commitment to Financial Well-Being

Our primary duty is to ensure that the athlete retains the majority of their gross earnings while receiving elite representation. By maintaining a strict cap structure and offering clear, transparent reporting, we ensure every dollar paid in agency fees yields measurable value in terms of financial growth, legal protection, and career longevity.
