Our Why
A million athletes today — in emerging leagues, individual sports, college, and beyond — are not represented by a labor organization. Sports Solidarity exists to close that gap.
Our Reach
Who We Serve
We assist players in professional football, rugby, and pickleball, and we hear from new athlete groups regularly. We work with existing unions that need the capacity we're built to provide. We do not assist management, ownership, or league offices.
