May Power Of PRO: Celebrating Growth, Progress & Embracing Future Opportunities
Pro Sports Assembly
Uniting leaders in professional sports to advance our industry. #PowerofProSports
As we approach the summer months—a time often synonymous with new beginnings and significant transitions—the theme of graduation resonates deeply within our PRO family. It’s a time to celebrate achievements, recognize hard work, and launch into the future with renewed vigor. In this spirit, we are delighted to share the latest updates and highlights from our vibrant association community, showcasing the continuous growth and accomplishments of PRO members.
Celebrating Leadership Development
As participants of The Manager’s Blueprint, Accessibility Design & Allyship, and Inclusive Leadership cohorts conclude their journeys, we acknowledge the dedication and investment from PRO members and our partners. Their collective efforts have significantly contributed to the personal and professional growth within our industry.
With this season's success, we are excited to announce the addition of new courses this fall. Be on the lookout for announcements and application openings this summer!
Inspiring Commencement Speeches by PRO Leaders
This graduation season, PRO Leaders have been at the forefront, delivering powerful commencement speeches that inspire and motivate the next generation. Check out Cynt Marshall 's keynote address at Berkeley. Titled 'The ball is in your hands," Cynt's speech encouraged graduates to seize their opportunities with confidence and determination, embodying the spirit of perseverance and leadership that defines the PRO community.
Additionally, we invite you to watch your Board Chair, Oracio Galindo , give his 2024 LMU Día de Reconocimiento commencement speech, which celebrates the achievements of graduates and underscores the importance of diversity, inclusion, and community in shaping future leaders.
Furthermore, we are thrilled to share the inspiring speech delivered by NWSL Commissioner Jessica Berman at the School of Law Diploma Ceremony | Fordham School of Law. This address emphasizes the significance of creating positive change and promoting justice in society.
Looking Ahead: The Assembly 2024 and New Partners

We are also thrilled to welcome new partners to Pro Sports Assembly, including Intello Sports Partners and Under Armour.

“I highly recommend the Pro Sports Assembly courses to anyone looking to grow their career in the sports industry. Not only are there topics that are tailored to the current issues that are pervasive throughout any organization, but the network you can develop through your cohort is invaluable. I have found a lot of positive learnings from each of the courses I have taken, and strongly recommend the programs to any others that may be considering participating.” - Cullen Munz, Ilitch Sports & Entertainment
