Your Athletes Will Face Financial Decisions. We Make Sure They're Ready.

NIL deals. First paychecks. Student loans. Taxes. Most college athletes have never been taught how money works. AGP delivers hands-on financial education that sticks.

Team Sessions

Interactive, in-person presentations for entire teams or multi-sport groups. Not a lecture. Athletes participate, compete, and learn by doing.

The Game of Life

Our signature simulation where athletes draft careers, manage budgets, handle curveballs, and compete against each other. The session they talk about for weeks.

1-on-1 Consultations

Private sessions for athletes who want to go deeper. Budgeting help, tax questions, NIL income planning, life-after-college prep.

A Progressive Curriculum That Grows With Your Athletes

Financial literacy isn't a single event. AGP builds a progression that develops over time — whether an athlete is with you all four years or arrives as a junior transfer. We meet them where they are.

Level 1

Foundations

Budgeting basics, spending psychology, saving habits, and financial discipline. The starting point for every athlete — freshmen and new transfers alike.

Level 2

Building

Taxes (including NIL), credit and debt management, insurance basics, and intro to investing. For athletes ready for the next step.

Level 3

Protecting

Maximizing financial potential, contracts and negotiation, protecting your brand, advanced investing.

Level 4

Transitioning

Life after college, career financial planning, real estate basics, and building long-term wealth.
