What is the
Champion Fund?
The Champion Fund is a professionally managed, SEC-registered interval fund offering diversified exposure across the full sports value chain — teams, technology, media, and real estate. One managed investment, spanning the global sports economy rather than any single team or deal.
A disciplined approach
to the global sports economy.
Sports has evolved from scarce trophy assets into an alternative investment category estimated at roughly $463 billion — driven by institutional capital entering the space, global media expansion, and the convergence of sports and technology.
The Champion Fund gives institutional and individual investors access to that economy through a single, professionally managed, diversified strategy spanning the entire sports value chain. You participate in the growth of the category, not the outcome of one game.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
One Portfolio.
Five Categories.
Where many sports funds concentrate in a single franchise, the Champion Fund allocates across five categories of the sports economy — so exposure isn't tied to one game, one league, or one outcome.

Inside the holdings
Venues, mixed-use districts, and the hospitality and land around the game.
Ticketing, fintech, fan engagement, and in-venue commerce.
The data, rights, and content that monetize sport beyond game day.
Emerging leagues, women's clubs, and selective franchise stakes.
Exposure across the ecosystem,
not a single outcome.
A single investment reaches across the sports economy — the venue, the technology, the real estate, and the businesses built around the game — diversifying exposure well beyond any one asset.
Equity stakes in teams and leagues, plus their revenue engines: media, sponsorship, ticketing, and merchandise.
Professional franchises now earn substantially more from media and sponsorship than from ticket sales alone.
Growth-stage companies building the infrastructure of modern sport: fan platforms, athlete-performance tools, and ticketing.
The apps fans use to follow their teams belong to a fast-growing industry of its own.
Proven sports brands, venue technology, and youth-sports platforms — acquired and scaled.
Many profitable, well-known sports brands are not listed on public markets.
The real estate anchored by the venue: hotels, restaurants, offices, retail, and residential.
Modern stadiums anchor entire districts — the buildings around the game can rival the team in value.
Content that monetizes sport beyond game day, plus targeted allocations to specialist managers.
Live sports rights have become some of the most valuable content in media.

A genuine asset class.
Not just a game.
Sports is now a full-stack, year-round business spanning media, data, real estate, and technology. Historically, the asset class has grown across market cycles — though past performance does not guarantee future results.

Built to grow across
market cycles.
Sports assets have shown durable enterprise-value growth across multiple market cycles, supported by scarcity, long-term contracted revenues, and expanding global demand.
Historically, professional franchises have exhibited differentiated growth characteristics and low correlation to traditional public markets — offering potential diversification benefits for long-term investors.
