How to go from 'overlooked' to 'in-demand' in sport (free webinar)
The real reason you're not breaking into sport and what to do about it this week:
You've got the degree.
You've done the work experience.
You're applying for everything.
And still… crickets.
Here's the hard truth:
You're not behind because you're not good enough.
You're behind because you're invisible.
And nobody's shown you how to fix that.
I'm Reuben. Ex-Cricket Australia. Founder of SportsGrad.
Over the past few years, we've helped people land 800+ roles in sport - at organisations like Cricket Australia, the AFL, Tennis Australia, Australian Olympic Committee, Chelsea FC, and more.
In this free session, I'll show you exactly what's getting in the way and the exact playbook we use to get people hired in sport within weeks. The fastest? 14 days.
The problem isn't you. It's the method.
Most people are playing the wrong game. They're applying harder, waiting longer, and wondering what they're doing wrong. Daniel Rafin sent 30 applications and got nowhere. Within 14 days of joining the program, he had a full-time commercial role at the NSW Swifts. He messaged me afterwards: "The Method works — and instantly." He's now at Ticketek Australia.
Dante McDonald spent 18 months applying with nothing to show for it. 16 days after joining, he was a Commercial Partnerships Coordinator at Cricket Australia. His words: "100% it was worth it. It was much quicker than expected." Eight months later, he came back for advice because a promotion was on the table.
James Marsh had 7 years in tech recruitment and zero sport industry connections. He switched to Fan Growth Manager at Melbourne Mavericks & SEN in 71 days — without going back to study.
Chelsea Robbins got her Hockey Australia offer 18 days after joining SportsGrad. "I am ecstatic," she said.
Neel Soman arrived in a new country - seven weeks later, he had an offer. His words: "Guess the SportsGrad Method really works!"
Here's what we'll cover in this free session:
🔥 The 5 real reasons your applications aren't landing (it's not what you think)
🔥 Why applying harder is the wrong move and what to do instead
🔥 How people are getting hired without ever publicly applying
🔥 The exact process we use to get people into sport in 14–52 days
🔥 How to get personal help building your own plan this week
What industry insiders say about SportsGrad members:
"When I see a SportsGrad member on an application, the quality is noticeable." - Dan Simon, Director of People, Victorian Institute of Sport
What people who've been through SportsGrad say:
"Working with Reuben helped me gain confidence, and I think that's such a key thing to break into the sports industry." - Jack Bates
"One of the unintentional outcomes was me absorbing that confidence and radiating it back out into the world and that paying off quite well." - Joel Blashki, now working in law after the program built his professional positioning
"He really personalises everything for you and helps you take step-by-step progress to give you the confidence to go out there and find roles that suit you." - Adrian Cordi, now Head Coach at Hills Sport High - hired in 20 days
"The program has absolutely been worth the investment — not just because it landed me a role I've always dreamed of, but it built my confidence that I can belong in this field. You can't put a monetary value on that." - Tom Blaszyzck, now at UQ Sport - joined with zero sport industry experience as a substitute teacher
"After 7 months of job hunting, I've been offered the role of Partnerships Coordinator at Paralympics Australia. A big shoutout to Reuben and the SportsGrad Program." - Rebecca Carter, now at Paralympics Australia
"I just signed a full-time position at a production company taking over the ops and tech at both MCG and Marvel. Your program is genuinely incredible — I wish I had it at uni." - Tom Krieser, now across MCG & Marvel
"The main outcome I got from joining the program was confidence. Having the belief from Reuben to step outside of my comfort zone made me want to keep going." - Leah Rizk, now at Football Australia
This one isn't for the "wait and see" crowd.
Every month you wait, you become more senior in the wrong direction. The hiring cycles don't pause. The roles don't wait.
The person who joins today and does nothing for a month is still ahead of the person who decides to start in a month.
This is for people who are done waiting and ready to actually make it happen.
