our mission.

We take a holistic approach to player development, providing resources that help athletes become professional rugby players, maximize on-field performance, generate off-field opportunities, and prepare for life after they hang up their boots. Improved player performance, commercial opportunities and elite resource development will help grow our game in North America.

On, Off & Beyond the Field

As we celebrate the growth of the professional game in North America, it’s important to recognize the challenges that our athletes face as professionals in a developing sport. Given that our athletes have a short professional career and that our athletes can be financially vulnerable, The AC has created a business that offers our athletes the support needed to maximize their potential during and after their playing careers.

At the Athlete Collective, we recognize the increasing need to support athletes, not only in their efforts to perform consistently at an elite level, but also to develop and support educated and informed athletes with complimentary life skills for a smooth transition in life after sport.

The Athlete Collective is a player founded and led initiative, designed to help athletes maximize value on and off the field, and to help them succeed before, during and after their professional careers.
