Services & Resources
An athlete’s career is a window of opportunity
to devise strategies, implement plans and establish goals that
relate to his performance on the field, create business opportunities,
and help to develop long term financial security. At the very
least, we look to provide them with a running start for life after
professional sports, if not with the long term financial security.
With the right resources, athletes can maximize their on-field
performances, income prospects, business opportunities, and future
career developments after professional sports.

Financial Planning
Professional athletes can witness a tremendous
change in their financial status and resources at lightening speed.
At other times, their financial growth and net worth changes more
slowly over time. In either case, the need for astute assistance
in planning the management of those funds and the resulting responses,
expectations and responsibilities is critical.
Through the years, Diamond Sports Management
has developed relationships with a trusted group of financial
planners that we believe create the appropriate support system
for our clients. We base that belief on their personal integrity,
their technical expertise, their willingness to communicate and
educate our clients, and their concern for our athlete’s
long term and family welfare.
Our recommendations to the clients for these
services are intended to give them early direction on a life impacting
matter. If our clients make sound decisions regarding their finances
and develop sound practices managing their financial affairs with
information to position them wisely, then we will feel another
instance of satisfaction in serving them.

Tax Planning
Each player needs trusted and timely advice regarding
their tax matters. With income received by playing in multiple
locations, players need to cover their tax liabilities responsibly
and efficiently. Contracts can have complicated deferrals and
need the projections and analysis from the tax expert to understand
the value of the dollars provided the client in both today’s
dollars and in the future.
To meet these needs, we have developed a rapport
with tax experts that meet these needs for the athlete. We understand
that any recommendation from us will reflect on us, therefore
we accept that responsibility with a keen awareness.
The current tax codes and legal options need
to be exercised to protect and position the client in the strongest
manner to manage their assets and build their financial security.
A service of this nature that works consistently to protect our
clients will be invaluable for financial success and peace of
mind.

Sports Medicine/Performace
During sports participation, athletes incur
micro-traumas to connective tissues through normal wear and
tear that is characteristic of that sport. As these tiny strains
and tears take place within the spindles and fibers of the soft
connective tissues, the athlete’s skeletal alignment begins
to change the body’s natural center of gravity. As this
happens, an athlete’s ability to execute the proper mechanics
of their sport becomes compromised. This creates the need to
compensate, which in turn changes the forces and work loads
the athlete experiences in the performance. These changes also
affect the quality of the performance. Athletes typically experience
undue stresses and changes in performance that increase the
instance of injury and decrease performance.
Keeping an athlete on the field and performing
at the ultimate level of their talent is our goal. With the
resources we understand and endorse, we can provide a unique
service to our clients that may minimize their developmental
time in the minor leagues, decrease the prospect of injury,
and maximize performance in relation to talent. If our clients
can achieve these goals, they will enhance their prospects of
playing successfully at the Major League level and sustaining
that level of play.
Due to the extensive assessment that our experts
make, we will be able to screen otherwise “healthy”,
injury-free athletes for the purpose of identifying areas of
weakness and predict potential physical limitations to their
future performance, a valuable asset to any world class performer.
Once these evaluations have been made, each
athlete is treated and conditioned in a manner relative to their
individual needs as determined from the test data. From there,
the athletes realize an upside to their condition and performance
that creates new confidence and success.
