PAC Sports

PAC Sports is seeking to expand its reach across the youth, amateur, club, recreational, and competitive sports tournament ecosystem in the United States.

We are looking for a well-connected sports industry professional who can help build relationships with league operators, tournament directors, event organizers, sports associations, clubs, facilities, and other decision-makers involved in organizing and managing sports tournaments.

Role Overview

PAC Sports is seeking a Strategic Sports Network & Business Development Consultant to help expand its relationships across the U.S. sports tournament market.

This is a flexible, relationship-driven consulting opportunity designed for someone who already has an active network of league operators, tournament directors, club directors, facility managers, sports event organizers, association leaders, or sports business professionals.

The ideal candidate personally knows 100+ relevant people in the sports tournament, league, club, or event ecosystem and has access to a broader network through sports associations, tournament circuits, event groups, club communities, facility networks, or long-standing industry relationships.

This opportunity is especially well-suited for someone already working in or around sports operations, tournament management, sports business development, league administration, facility management, event production, or athletic programming.

Ideal Candidate Profile

The strongest candidates will have:

• 100+ relevant professional connections across sports leagues, tournament directors, clubs, associations, facilities, or event organizers
• Existing relationships with decision-makers in youth sports, amateur sports, club sports, recreational leagues, tournament circuits, or sports facilities
• Ability to make warm introductions to league operators, tournament directors, and sports organization leaders
• Strong credibility within the sports event or league ecosystem
• Familiarity with how tournaments, leagues, and sports organizations evaluate vendors, partnerships, sponsorships, technology, and operational support
• Comfort explaining PAC Sports’ value proposition to sports organizations
• Ability to identify high-potential leagues, tournaments, organizers, and event groups
• Strong communication, follow-up, and relationship management skills
• Interest in a flexible, performance-driven consulting or referral model
• Practical understanding of tournament operations, league growth, event logistics, or sports business development

Key Responsibilities

• Identify leagues, tournament directors, and sports organizations that may be a strong fit for PAC Sports
• Make warm introductions to qualified decision-makers and influencers
• Help explain PAC Sports’ value proposition to league and tournament contacts
• Support relationship-building across tournament circuits, leagues, clubs, associations, and facilities
• Help qualify opportunities based on sport, geography, event size, timing, decision-maker access, and partnership potential
• Support occasional introductory calls when relationship context is helpful
• Provide insight into sports tournament operations, buying processes, sponsorship opportunities, event calendars, and league decision-making
• Recommend events, conferences, associations, and sports communities where PAC Sports should build visibility
• Help PAC Sports create a repeatable business development and referral motion across the sports tournament ecosystem
• Represent PAC Sports professionally within existing sports industry relationships

What This Role Is Not

• This is not a cold-calling role.
• This is not a daily quota-based sales development role.
• This is not a full-time operations role.
• This is not a requirement to run tournaments directly.
• This is not a requirement to leave your current job.

The primary value is trusted access, sports industry credibility, existing league and tournament relationships, and the ability to help PAC Sports expand through warm introductions and strategic networking.

Compensation

This is a flexible, performance-driven consulting opportunity with uncapped commission or referral-based earning potential.

Compensation may be based on qualified introductions, meetings booked, partnerships created, league or tournament relationships activated, revenue generated from referred opportunities, or other mutually agreed success metrics.

Flexible engagement models may include:

• Strategic Sports Network Consultant
• Business Development Consultant
• Commission-based sports partnership partner
• Part-time league and tournament referral partner
• Sports network expansion advisor
• Tournament ecosystem consultant
• Advisor plus commission structure
• Long-term referral partner

Specific compensation terms will be discussed with qualified candidates based on network strength, expected involvement, access to decision-makers, sport/category focus, and potential contribution to PAC Sports’ growth.

What Success Looks Like

Within the first 3–6 months, success may include:

• Qualified introductions to league operators and tournament directors
• Meetings with sports organizations, facilities, associations, or event organizers
• New partnership conversations created for PAC Sports
• A growing pipeline of tournament and league opportunities
• Repeatable outreach channels established through sports associations, tournament circuits, club networks, or facility groups
• Clear segmentation of opportunities by sport, geography, event size, and decision-maker fit
• Stronger PAC Sports visibility across the U.S. sports tournament ecosystem
• Initial revenue-generating partnerships or referred opportunities

Why Partner With PAC Sports

• Flexible opportunity to monetize an existing sports industry network
• No requirement to leave current employment
• Opportunity to help grow a sports brand across the U.S. tournament and league ecosystem
• Strong fit for relationship-driven sports professionals
• Potential to grow into a larger business development, partnerships, channel, or advisory role over time
• Opportunity to build meaningful relationships across leagues, tournaments, facilities, clubs, and sports organizations

Who Should Apply

This opportunity may be a strong fit for someone who already has trusted relationships with tournament directors, league operators, club directors, facility managers, sports associations, event organizers, or other sports decision-makers and wants to help PAC Sports expand through warm introductions, strategic networking, and performance-driven business development.
