The Problem

The world of athletics

Particularly track and field, faces multiple challenges that undermine the success and sustainability of aspiring and professional athletes.

Financial Hardship for Athletes

Many athletes, especially those from underprivileged backgrounds, struggle with securing the necessary funding to cover their training, travel, and competition expenses. This issue worsens post-retirement, leaving former athletes with limited resources or opportunities to transition into new careers.

Underfunded Youth Programs

Many young athletes in developing regions, particularly in countries like Jamaica and across Africa, have the talent but lack the financial and infrastructural support to develop their skills. Without adequate programs or scholarships, many potential stars fail to reach their full potential.

Lack of Entertainment and Global Appeal in Track and Field

While athletics has a rich tradition, track and field has struggled to capture the same level of global attention as other major sports. The absence of a consistently exciting, fan-driven platform has left the sport under-commercialized and under-leveraged.

Disparity in Sports Opportunities for Minorities

Black athletes and other minorities often face systemic challenges, from inadequate resources to inequitable access to sponsorships and platforms that could elevate their careers.

Disconnect Between Athletic Careers and Post-Retirement Support

For many athletes, the support ends the moment their careers conclude. This creates a vacuum where retired athletes are left without the resources or opportunities to transition into other careers or contribute back to their communities.

The Solutions

Clash on the Track offers

A multi-faceted solution to address these core problems through an innovative blend of sports entertainment and philanthropy:

Financial Support for Athletes

By donating 40% of profits to financially struggling athletes, Clash on the Track provides the necessary financial resources for athletes to continue training, compete globally, and cover personal expenses. This initiative helps both active athletes and those transitioning into retirement.

Youth Development Programs

Through our partnership with the Strides Foundation, we directly fund youth programs and scholarships for talented young athletes in regions with limited access to sports resources. This ensures that young athletes receive the training and financial support needed to develop their potential and compete at higher levels.

Exciting, Cross-Sport Competitions

We reimagine track and field as a global entertainment platform by introducing head-to-head races between athletes from different sports, such as football, soccer, baseball, tennis, basketball, and track. This approach creates excitement and draws in fans who might not typically follow traditional track and field events. Our event model incorporates live entertainment, fan engagement activities, and high-stakes clashes, ensuring broader appeal and greater media exposure.

A Platform for Minorities and Underrepresented Athletes

Clash on the Track creates a platform that highlights and promotes Black and minority athletes. By offering sponsorship opportunities, media visibility, and mentoring programs, we provide the tools these athletes need to thrive and elevate their careers.

Post-Retirement Athlete Support

Our event doesn’t just focus on current athletes. Through the Strides Foundation, we create mentorship and education programs designed to help retired athletes transition into new careers, become entrepreneurs, or give back to their communities by supporting the next generation of athletes.

Market Opportunity

Seizing the Moment

The sports industry is undergoing a transformative period, with unprecedented levels of private investment flowing into diverse areas of sports, especially in the USA. From women’s sports to youth leagues, investors are recognizing the enormous growth potential in underrepresented and emerging sports markets. Clash on the Track is perfectly positioned to capitalize on this momentum, offering a unique sports entertainment model that combines competition, entertainment, and philanthropy.

Business Model and Revenue Streams

Business Model

Clash on the Track operates as a hybrid for-profit and non-profit entity. Our core business generates revenue by organizing and hosting competitive, high-energy athletic events where professional athletes from various sports face off in one-on-one challenges. These events appeal to a broad audience, attracting sponsors, media partners, and fans globally. Our unique approach blends sports entertainment with social impact, as 40% of net profits are directed to the Strides Foundation, supporting athletes in financial need and fostering youth development through education and sports programs.

The business is designed to scale internationally, with events starting in Jamaica and expanding to other markets such as the USA, Canada, Japan, the UK, and South Africa. This dual-purpose model enhances our appeal to both commercial sponsors and philanthropically-minded investors, creating a balance between profit-driven growth and meaningful social contribution.

Our revenue streams are amplified by the inclusion of live reggae music performances. The combination of sports and reggae music draws a broader audience and increases attendance, creating new opportunities for fan engagement, both in-venue and online, particularly in markets where reggae has a strong cultural influence, like Japan.
