Kurt Badenhausen Longtime sports team owners Josh Harris and David Blitzer have been actively investing in youth sports properties over the last two years.
Now, the private equity titans are rolling up those assets into a new parent company, Unrivaled Sports. The formation of Unrivaled includes an investment by Peter Chernin‘s Chernin Group and the hiring of former Nike COO and longtime Disney executive Andy Campion to run the firm. “Through Unrivaled Sports, we’re not just investing in sports; we’re investing in future generations by making sports more inclusive and accessible in communities across the nation,” Harris said in a statement.
