That's what we're trying to prove at MyBestPlay, a sport network for agents, clubs, players, coaches and scouts.

After launching one of the first online sports social networks, I currently run my own social media consultancy that helps professional athletes, business and individuals use social media wisely. I'm a regular contributor on bleacherreport.com, writing specially on social media and sports, which allowed me to be featured on CNN recently to talk about the SEC's policy on banning social media at football games. In addition, I will also be a guest lecturer this fall talking about the impact of social media in sport at Northwestern University and the University of Illinois. I look forward to seeing what you guys are coming up with in this series! I’ll add my hat to the ring on this article.
