OFF THE PITCH
HSM helps professional women's soccer athletes build their brand off the pitch -- securing partnerships, creating campaigns, and developing long-term earning power beyond the game.
Social Media Campaigns
Standout defender Paige Almendariz took part in a months-long social media campaign with Bombas. The partnership included social content and a charitable component - Paige and Bombas teamed up to donate socks to sports & wellness programs for each pair sold.
Targeted Brand Campaigns
Star NWSL defender Arin Wright served as the spokesperson for an event in collaboration with Huggies, highlighting the company's initiative of donating diapers to families in need in the Chicago area.

ALI RILEY LEADS NWSL IN ENDORSEMENT DEALS
Earning Power Beyond the Contract
In a SponsorUnited report, HSM client Ali Riley ranked first among all NWSL players in active brand endorsements with 11 deals. She got there while ranking 35th in the league in Instagram followers, and without competing for the USWNT. That gap is the whole argument for what we do off the pitch: endorsement value is built through strategy, fit and follow-through.
