2020 SPORTS was established to fill the service quality gaps that have appeared in athlete management over the past 10-15 years. Gaps that we believe are no longer acceptable to full-time or aspiring professional athletes.

2020 SPORTS is owned and operated by successful sportsman and businessman Tony Butterfield.  Tony believes strongly in the importance of providing a full suite of high quality services to the modern athlete. These services are tailored individually to meet the increasing demands of the diverse sports in which our clients strive to succeed.

2020's vision is to be “one of the most respected and innovative sports management companies in Australia”.

2020 focuses on a holistic approach to management ensuring that all facets of a clients life and sport are considered, examined and developed. This provides the athlete with a balanced lifestyle that we believe is critical and conducive to excellence in sport as well as for prospects beyond the sporting arenas.

Another important focus is to remain accountable to each client as to their needs and ambitions. Remaining accessible, supportive and effective requires face-to-face mentoring, advice giving and service support systems.

These benchmarks are achieved through implementation of the highest quality services suite that provides to clients:

  • Educational pathways;

  • legal advice and support;

  • Financial, Budgeting and Taxation services

  • Investment Advice

  • Regular contact and mentoring,

  • Sports specific support, and

  • Sourcing and acquisition of sports employment and sponsorship opportunities.

  • Media training

We insist on a commitment from our clients to strive for excellence on and off the sporting fields and to avail themselves of the services at their disposal. This allows 2020 to maximize opportunities for clients and ensures our shared goals are achieved.

The core outcome at 2020 SPORTS is for clients to emerge from their sporting careers with resources, skills and confidence enough to approach life beyond with courage, dignity, and an expectation of continued success and ongoing contributions to their communities.
