Rex Grayner built RKG Sports to help youth sports properties that have the audience but nobody selling it.
Most recently as SVP, Business Development for the largest operator of multi-day junior golf tournaments in the U.S., Rex secured multi-year partnerships with the likes of GEICO, Dunlop Sports Americas, Revelyst, Cirkul, IMG Academy, Mizuno, and AdventHealth. 50+ deals valued at $2.7 million in sponsorships in 3.5 years, plus 20% revenue growth across the company.
Before that, Rex spent nearly 20 years founding and running Student-Athlete Showcase, helping more than 15,000 families navigate their college recruiting journeys. Rex received a Master’s in Sport Management from Central Michigan University, a BA in English from UC San Diego, and a Denver Business Journal 40 Under 40 award.
RKG Sports works as an extension of your team. We show what needs to be fixed, then build the sponsorship infrastructure, price the assets, create the packages, and go sell them to brands who elevate the experience for your families.
