Sports Philanthropy Newsstand 03-16-2026

The article about the Atlanta United FC and Arthur M. Blank Sports & Entertainment highlights several women working across different roles in the organizations and shares their perspectives on building careers in the sports industry. The women discuss how they entered the field through diverse paths—such as marketing, photography, athletic training, and player personnel—and explain the challenges of working in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Many emphasize the importance of confidence, perseverance, and not waiting until you meet every qualification before applying for opportunities. They also encourage young women to seek mentorship, support other women in the industry, and believe they belong in sports careers, stressing that diverse perspectives help strengthen teams and organizations. 


The Odafe Oweh agreed to a four-year, $100 million contract with the Washington Commanders, including about $68 million guaranteed, after finishing the 2025 season strongly with the Los Angeles Chargers. Oweh began the season with the Baltimore Ravens but was traded midseason after a slow start, then recorded 7.5 sacks in 12 games with the Chargers and added a standout playoff performance with three sacks and two forced fumbles. Washington targeted Oweh as a major free-agent addition to improve a defense that struggled in 2025, hoping the 27-year-old pass rusher can become a key piece of its pass rush and help the team bounce back next season.

Have a nice week!

LIVE GENEROUSLY!
