[vc_row equal_height="yes"][vc_column][vc_column_text]Looking to add a little more inspirational content to your next event? Hiring a sports star or Sports Athlete Speaker could be just the boost that you need to bring people together, get them to aim a little higher, and carry some powerful messages out into the world with them.
There is a reason that sports are such fertile topics for inspiring people. It's all about rising to challenges and overcoming personal limitations in order to reach a goal - and that is an applicable skill that can easily be transferred into anyone’s life or work scenario.
Sports are also accessible - we have all played and watched them, enjoyed the thrill of cheering for our favorite team, and shared a feeling of glory in their victory. The fascination is that few make it as talented star athletes for the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB - and the particular mix of dedication and talent that it takes makes for a fascinating story. If you’re aiming to inspire action in a group of people there really is no better fit than a tale of guts and glory to get everyone fired up.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Boosting Team Morale
Every good company out there has improving and maintaining the morale of their staff at the top of the agenda. When people are brought into the vision and values that your business has chosen, they perform a lot better consistently. They have a motivation that runs over and above things like pay structures and bonuses. And this has so many parallels with the life and performance of an elite athlete who plays for the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB.
Increasing Dedication
To succeed in the world of sports, it takes more than focus. It takes a sense of dedication to a wider goal. Athletes who have risen to the top of their game don’t get there by chance. They get there by believing in something and committing themselves to it. That means they are perfectly placed to explain this sense of a higher purpose to an audience. Speaking of dedication, athletes like Brett Favre, Desmond Howard and Davante Adams might boost your attendance at your next event!
Improving Self-Worth
There is a lot to be learned about moving forward even on a bad day or when you don’t want to, finding your inner drive and strength, keeping consistent work, and sometimes recovering from setbacks and adversity. Players such as Jerry Kramer have embodied this focus and sense of purpose and channeled it into his work to the accolade and enjoyment of millions of sports fans. What could your staff do if they were inspired to tap into the same sense of purpose?[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
At Mayfield Sports Marketing, our sports stars are useful for a variety of reasons, including business promotions, motivational speaking, and community involvement.
Motivational Speaking
The elite sports personnel at Mayfield Sports Marketing can speak on a variety of topics, tuning their message for your 
audience and the particular goals you want the event to achieve. Using their sporting experience and entertaining real-world examples from their careers, they can give the audience an intimate look into the hidden world of excellence in professional sports.
Our sports athletes can aim to challenge behaviors, set new expectations, and teach the secrets of success to your guests. Every speech is designed as a catalyst for change in the lives of others - be that a big challenge, or the alteration of everyday behavior which could add up to a big result.
Perhaps your group seeks a speaker such as: Tony Dungy, Emmitt Smith or Aaron Jones. The Mayfield Sports Marketing team can source athletes and speakers by working with the athlete directly, their marketing team or agent.
Our speakers give a brand new perspective. They provide exciting and engaging examples for people to follow. They educate the audience to think about self-development and becoming the very best version of themselves. And the impact they leave in their wake can last a lifetime for those who hear them speak.
Endorsing A Product
There is so much more to the services Mayfield Sports Marketing can offer in addition to inspiring speaking engagements. Another way that our professional sports athletes can work with your business is through product endorsement.
You can also leverage the platforms and exposure of these stars to have your branding and messaging reach a far wider audience - people who may not have come into contact with what you do before. By positioning your product with a prominent sports figure, whom the public associate with positive values such as teamwork, dedication, and hard work, your marketing message is amplified.
People can enjoy the feeling of affiliation with those values and our athletes by using the same service or product. Endorsements have many positive benefits for your business. They help to build brand equity - we can all think of successful examples of a brand partnering with a well-known figure and going on to enjoy a new level of success.
You are also building a lasting association with great values - when people see their favorite sports star in action, they will now also think of your brand. This can help your business to stand out and gain a competitive edge in the marketplace.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard will co-host Clubhouse Live this season. USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin's award-winning Packers show kicks off Monday September 14, 2020 and can be seen on any of our USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin Facebook pages https://www.facebook.com/ClubhouseLive/ and websites, including facebook.com/packersnews and clubhouselive.com, and on our YouTube channel.Tonight's ink: https://bit.ly/2ZCn5OP
Due to the ongoing concerns of COVID-19, which has canceled many public events, Clubhouse Live will kick off the year in a virtual format.
The show can be seen Mondays at 6:30 p.m. during the Packers season on any of our USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin Facebook pages and websites, including facebook.com/packersnews and clubhouselive.com, and on our YouTube channel. It will be made available to viewers on mobile, desktop, tablet and streaming devices.
Lazard is coming off a 2019 season that saw him emerge as a big-play threat in coach Matt LaFleur’s offense. The Iowa native tallied 35 catches for 477 yards and three touchdowns as the Packers finished 13-3 and advanced to the NFC championship.
His breakout came in a Week 6 victory over Detroit at Lambeau Field when he caught four passes for 65 yards, which included a difficult 35-yard touchdown grab along the sideline. Lazard also had receptions of 12, three and 15 yards during what proved to be the Packers’ game-winning drive as they went on to top the Lions 23-22.
Expect the third-year receiver to keep catching key touchdown passes and adding to the stat sheet as the Packers figure to be among the NFC heavyweights again this season.
And expect Lazard to provide some laughs and fun when he pivots from full-time NFL wide receiver to part-time co-host.
Lazard will also have teammate guests hop on the livestream. And despite our audible to a virtual format, viewers will still have the opportunity to ask questions in real-time and register to win prizes.
Look for more details and other show information on our Facebook page at facebook.com/clubhouselive.
And be sure to look for Lazard – and the Clubhouse Live crew – Monday nights. Article credit Brett Christopherson.
Mayfield Sports is a full service sports marketing agency and has access to hundreds of athletes for a corporation, virtual, non-profit or association event. Pro Football Hall of Fame athletes like Jerry Kramer and Paul Hornung. Mayfield Sports also has worked with current athletes who have won MVP awards in their sport like Antetokounmpo. Hiring an athlete like Packers Allen Lazard can increase attendance at your event or bring awareness to your product.
Mayfield Sports congratulates Alvin Kamara, Melvin Gordon, Davante Adams, and Xavian Howard for their inclusion on the NFL Network Top 100 Players of 2020 list. The list is voted on by NFL players themselves and revealed during the preseason. We’re proud to have these players on the Mayfield Sports team!
Xavian Howard is ranked #55 on this year’s NFL 100. As the starting cornerback for the Miami Dolphins, Howard continues to get national recognition for his stellar play. In fact, longtime NFL cornerback DeAngelo Hall recently told NFL Network he believes that there is no better cornerback in the league than Howard right now.
After a seven interception season in 2018 and a Pro Bowl invitation, Howard is set to make a difference in Miami in his fourth NFL season.
Moving up 10 spots from his ranking last year, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams finds himself ranked #35 on this year’s NFL 100 list. Aaron Rodgers’ go-to offensive weapon had his best season ever last year with 111 receptions and 13 touchdowns.
In five seasons with the Packers, he’s been making his mark on the record books. Last season, he was one catch away from tying Sterling Sharpe’s single-season record and was only 133 yards short of Jordy Nelson’s single-season yardage record. Adams has gone to the Pro Bowl each of the last two seasons.
While Melvin Gordon works out his contract with the Los Angeles Chargers, both he and the team celebrated his inclusion at #34 on this year’s NFL 100 list. In each of the last three seasons, Gordon has managed to put up over 1,000 yards and no less than 10 touchdowns.
The former Wisconsin Badger joins a long list of Wisconsin greats to make the NFL 100 cut, including players such as Russell Wilson and two Watt brothers. According to Pro Football Focus, one of the things that makes Gordon so special is his outstanding athleticism. Last season, he forced a missed tackle every 4.3 rushing attempts, ranking second in the league amongst running backs.
When Alvin Kamara was drafted by the New Orleans Saints two years ago in the third round, many pundits suggested he was just a backup for Mark Ingram at running back. Turns out, Kamara was the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, and after a stellar second season, he earns the #14 spot on this year’s NFL 100.
Kamara has made the Pro Bowl both of his NFL seasons. He is both a rushing and catching threat. Last season, not only did he rush for 883 yards and 14 touchdowns, he also caught 81 passes for 709 yards and 4 touchdowns. How potent is the Saints offense? Two other players, Drew Brees and Michael Thomas, also made the Top 15.
Mayfield Sports is proud to work with all these players and many more to create exciting speaking, endorsement, and appearance opportunities. If you’d like to arrange a celebrity athlete appearance for your next engagement or event, contact us using our online contact form. Be a part of a winning team and let us help you bring a championship spirit to your next event!

I have heard the saying, "The Green Bay Way" for years from retired Green Bay legends like HOF Jerry Kramer, HOF Dave Robinson, Super Bowl Champions like Gilbert Brown, and NFL Hall of Fame 2020 Finalist LeRoy Butler. I see the integrity of this tradition continue at recent events with Green Bay players like Aaron Jones, Davante Adams, Allen Lazard, and Kenny Clark.
There are times that Green Bay fans may be a bit confused when the organization makes a selection at the NFL draft or signs a free agent that we are less familiar with like Za'Darius Smith or Preston Smith, but all of these players have the same thing in common. When you watch them on and off the field, they handle themselves with class, professionalism, are students of the game and all have a bit of swag too.
In 2019, we had the opportunity to contract numerous players for charity events, corporate events with Anotonio Freeman for FanDuel motivational speaking, autograph sessions and even went on a baseball stadium tour to meet Packers fans. Green Bay fans come out to meet their players off the field and are so excited to grab a photo or an autograph from their favorites.
We look forward to an amazing 2020 year booking and contracting events with so many wonderful players. If your association seeks a motivational speaker, a corporation event appearance, your non-profit group wants to raise more revenue, or memorabilia company seeking some new autographs, call me directly at 262.366.8188.

Whether you are a current or former member of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines or Coast Guard, November is our country's time to thank you for your service. The NFL also salutes our nation's military members during November as well with on-field displays and sideline gear specially made for the coaching staff of all teams.
Mayfield Sports Marketing’s owner and president Mark Mayfield takes his commitment to veterans seriously in part to his family’s strong military background, his grandfather, Clyde Mayfield, serving in the Army during WWII, his Uncle Mark completing two tours in Vietnam with the Marine Corps, his father-in-law Bill serving in the Army, his Uncle Dick serving in the Air Force, Uncle Terry serving in the Navy, and Uncle Dick serving in the Marine Corps.
He recently traveled to Washington D.C. and joined long-time friend Sergeant Major Aaron Little, United States Army and Special Aide to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark A Milley at his promotion ceremony.
In 2013, Mark created Honor Canvas honoring the service of military members and veterans and in 2016 was presented with the opportunity to connect with Never Forgotten Honor Flights.
An affiliate of the Honor Flight Network, a national network made-up of over 100 independent Hubs in 45 states, The Never Forgotten Honor Flight is a Wausau based organization established in 2009 with the simple goal of flying veterans from it’s region to Washington D.C. in order to visit memorials built in their honor.
The Never Forgotten Honor Flight program receives no government funding and is supported entirely via commercial and private donors including civic and veteran organizations, employees of corporations, churches, schools, various foundations. The only qualifying requirement a veteran must meet to participate in an Honor Flight is service during stated time periods and honorable discharge from any branch of the U.S. military. There is absolutely no travel cost to the veteran at all.
During this one day trip veterans and their guardians visit the World War II, Korean, and Vietnam Memorials along with other historical landmarks including Iwo Jima Memorial (Marine Corps War Memorial), Air Force Memorial, Pentagon Memorial, and the Arlington National Cemetary where they have the opportunity to see the Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
The Never Forgotten Honor Flight Hub has hosted more than 3,500 veterans since 2009 as they make this memorable trip and together with the other five Wisconsin Honor Flight Hubs flew more veterans to Washinton D.C. than any other state in 2018. Currently hosting WWII, Korean War, and Vietnam War-era veterans, The Never Forgotten Honor Flight also serves terminally ill veterans from any era.
In 2016 Gannett Media partnered Mayfield Sports Marketing with an opportunity to honor those who had served by sponsoring celebrity athlete John Kuhn to join 98 local veterans on a May 2016 Honor Flight. USA TODAY NETWORK and Gannett Media’s “Honoring Our Freedom” showcased military mail from home from the Civil War through current operations.
“With the success of the Brewers’ Jonathan Lucroy going on the flight in Milwaukee in 2014, we thought it would be awesome to have a Packers player go on a flight. Working with and knowing John, we didn't make any other suggestions for players to go on the flight. John has always been involved with the Wisconsin communities in a variety of ways. Not only being a huge fan favorite, we knew he would be humbled to take the flight and the journey with the veterans on the flight.” ~ Mark Mayfield, Mayfield Sports Marketing.
During his time with the Honor Flight participants, Kuhn had the opportunity to interview six of them for a half-hour documentary, John Kuhn Honoring our Freedom DVD, about their journey which premiered Veterans Day 2016.
“To sit and have the conversations with the (veterans) I’ve had, it’s really been impressive to hear some of their stories, see the smiles on their faces and see what this truly means to them,” Kuhn said during the May 16 trip.
For players such as Kramer, who played during the Vietnam era, participating in the Honor Flights is a way of bringing healing. Players during the 1960s are well aware of the reception the veterans got coming home. For these athletes, it's a chance to give the players a homecoming they didn't get before.
Playing during the Vietnam era and seeing first hand the cold homecomings Vietnam vets received decades ago had a big impact on Hall of Famer and Packer great Jerry Kramer and played a major role in his decision to get involved with the Never Forgotten Honor Flight program.
“I saw this as an attempt to ease some of the pain for some of the Vietnam veterans, I thought maybe this could heal things a little bit,” Kramer said. “I thought if they could see the monuments, memorials, and all the things that have been erected for them … and maybe hear the cheers of a few folks along the way … it might help a little bit.”
A storyteller in his own right, Kramer enjoyed having the chance interview veterans once again for a half-hour documentary, Jerry Kramer Honoring our Freedom DVD, while sharing his own stories of the Ice Bowl and playing under legendary Green Bay Packer coach Vince Lombardi.
Green Bay Packer Hall of Famer Gilbert Brown and Mayfield Sports Marketing Owner and President Mark Mayfield had the opportunity to join area veterans on a Never Forgotten Honor Flight in May 2018. With a father who served in the Navy, Brown understands first hand the sacrifices military members and their families make.
"Every time I'm signing autographs or every time I'm somewhere, I stand up and shake these guys' hands. Just out of the respect for the things they have done us and paved the way for us," he said.
Continuing the tradition of Kuhn and Kramer before him, Brown also had the opportunity to sit down and interview veterans on the flight for a half-hour documentary, Gilbert Brown Honoring our Freedom DVD. He even credits his time with the Green and Gold for helping him take on the new challenge of interviewer:
"Being able to interview these guys, it lets them open up because they do feel like we have a rapport," Brown said. "Football, basketball, guys like us, we're the made-up guys. We're like the comic book guys compared to these guys. They are real-life heroes and champions

January 15, 1967, was the date. Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum was the place. For the 61, 946 spectators that day, as well as a national audience on two TV networks (NBC and CBS both simulcast the game), sports history was made in the inaugural AFL-NFL World Championship Game, now known as Super Bowl I.
This week, as part of the NFL 100 season-long celebration, the Green Bay Packers and the Kansas City Chiefs will relive the glory of Super Bowl I by playing on Sunday Night Football. With star quarterback Patrick Mahomes dealing with a knee injury, the Green & Gold look to keep their three-game win streak alive.
As the first championship game between the long-established NFL and the upstart AFL, many spectators were interested in who would win, the Packers led by Bart Starr or the Chiefs with Len Dawson at quarterback.
At halftime, Green Bay only held a 14-10 lead. It appeared the Chiefs, who had beaten the Buffalo Bills 31-7 in the AFL Championships game, would be tough competition for the Packers. Then, at the beginning of the third quarter, Packers safety Willie Wood intercepted a key pass, delivered a 50-yard return and the Packers went on to score 21 unanswered points. The final score of Super Bowl I: 35-10 in favor of the Packers.
Eleven players from that first championship Packers team, in addition to Head Coach Vince Lombardi, went on to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Green Bay would go on to win three more Super Bowl championships, including Super Bowl II the following year.
Mayfield Sports Marketing is incredibly proud to partner with several of the starters from that historic game. All-Pro RG Jerry Kramer was an integral part of the Packers offensive line that season and WR Boyd Dowler was one of Bart Starr's favorite targets. Dave Robinson was a key player in the Packers linebacking corps while punter Donny Anderson helped introduce the NFL to the concept of "hang-time" in punting. While a neck injury sidelined Paul Hornung for Super Bowl I, his impact on Packer history is legendary and he is one of only nine players to win both the Heisman Trophy and the NFL's MVP Award.
Kramer and Robinson would eventually be inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame, and Dowler will hopefully be a member of the 2020 Canton class.
If you're a Packers fan, there's no greater thrill than to be in the presence of Packer greatness. At Mayfield Sports Marketing, we count ourselves some of the luckiest people on Earth to work with Kramer, Dowler, and Robinson on various events, including autograph signings, opening day ceremonies, and speaking engagements.
We wish the Green Bay Packers the best as they take on the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday night, and we thank our HOF Packers players for bringing that first trophy home to Wisconsin.

The 2019 NFL season marks the 100th anniversary of the league with the NFL designating an "NFL 100 Game of the Week" each week to symbolize the league's history and its most memorable moments.
This commemorative series of games began with the Packers vs. the Bears in Week 1, showcasing the oldest rivalry in professional football. Now, the NFL 100 comes to Lambeau Field this week in a rematch of Super Bowl II, the Oakland Raiders vs. the Green Bay Packers.
The 1967 season was an amazing season for the Packers, who were coming off a win in Super Bowl I. Behind legendary Hall of Fame coach Vince Lombardi, and the quarterbacking excellence of Hall of Famer Bart Starr, the Packers had their sights set on defending the inaugural Super Bowl title.
It was an uphill climb just to reach the Super Bowl for a second time. Star players Paul Hornung and Jim Taylor were gone. The players signed to replace them were injured early in the season. Starr missed four games because of injury and had almost twice as many interceptions as touchdowns.
It was the wide receivers that carried the offense that season. Carroll Dale averaged 21.1 yards per catch and Boyd Dowler scored 4 touchdowns with 846 receiving yards. Interesting fact: Boyd Dowler is one of six wide receivers on the NFL 50th Anniversary team, but is the only one of the six yet to be named to the Hall of Fame. Packers fans are hopeful that 2020 will be the year that injustice is corrected.
The Packers had a 9-4-1 record heading into the playoffs, but had given up 78 points in their last three games. They dug deep in the playoffs, first beating the Los Angeles Rams 28-7, then coming from behind to beat the Dallas Cowboys 21-7 in the infamous Ice Bowl game.
In Super Bowl II, the Packers were dominant, beating the Oakland Raiders 33-14. Bart Starr became the first player to be named MVP in back to back Super Bowls. In addition to Vince Lombardi, nine Packer players went on to be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Mayfield Sports Marketing is proud to work with both current and former Green Bay Packers players. We are especially proud of our connection with Super Bowl I and II via HOF players Dave Robinson and Jerry Kramer, as well as future HOFer Boyd Dowler. All of them are beloved figures in Lambeau lore and always draw a large, enthusiastic crowd at every event they are a part of.
If you're interested in working with either Dave Robinson, Jerry Kramer, or Boyd Dowler at your next autograph session, business event, or speaking engagement, contact Mayfield Sports Marketing today using our convenient online contact form. You're sure to have a great turnout when a Packers legend shows up!
On behalf of everyone at Mayfield Sports Marketing, good luck to the Packers this weekend against the Raiders in this special NFL 100 commemorative game.
