NIL money and brand deals aren’t only for the elite. we can help connect you to the brands and people that love sports and are always cheering for the underdog.
Elite NIL athletes — especially in Division I football & basketball — earn hundreds of thousands or millions—but the ‘average’ NIL payout for most Division 1 athletes is only a few thousand dollars, and drops into the hundreds in Division II.

OUR WHY
CHAMPION U is a passion project created by a group of entrepreneurs who hit their first home runs in the areNa of student success anD PERSONAL GROWTH. We also love sports. We play, we watch, we cheer. We know the incredible investment student athletes make in the pursuit of their dreams.
fortunately, sports can enrich our lives well past high school and college — but PRO sports are rarely a path to a lucrative career. We started champion U to bring resources, tools, and education to all who love sports, while ensuring they have a strong path to a bright future.—no matter their sports journey.
