Strategic Investor/Co-Founder Owner
Company Description
The ENTFLA (Entertainment Football Association-goentfla.com) is a centralized, sports entertainment deployment platform, designed to scale sports leagues in 1/10 the traditional timeframe. Leveraging a shared services backend (from HR to Accounting), unified media, sponsorship, ticketing, merchandise and technology assets, the systematic approach offers a scalable growth model for Professional American Indoor Football teams. The league cuts out 75% of cost on a competitive basis by eliminating national travel and building teams in geographic clusters- 4 teams within a 2 to 5 hour driving distance. Centralized media has already led to contracts with combined reach of over 200M. The model alleviates the core risks of emerging sports leagues, and the predominant risks of Indoor Football Leagues:
- Poor League Operators
- Untested Franchise Owners

We aim to make sports and entertainment accessible and exciting for everyone.
