ARETÉ – defined as ‘the pursuit of excellence of any kind’, is a dynamic new Sports Management company founded in 2015 by former Wasserman agent, Simon Bayliff. ARETÉ specialises in talent representation, sales consultancy and brand management for a number of world-class athletes, brands and teams, including Southampton footballer Nathan Redmond, Red Bull Racing driver Daniel Ricciardo, GB hockey goalkeeper Maddie Hinch and triathlete Jodie Stimpson. 

Following the team’s recent 2^nd birthday celebrations, we are delighted to officially launch the beginning of an initial 12 month partnership, during which time we will work together in a number of exciting ways. 

As a sporty bunch, the team will be raising funds for Access Sport through some of our fundraising events, including the adventurous Bear Grylls Survival Race in London this September. They’ll also be putting their sporting knowledge to the test at our annual ‘A Question of Access Sport’ Dinner taking place at The Brewery on the 11^th of October.

Furthermore, we are really looking forward to being able to tap into the ARETÉ team’s expertise and apply it to our skills development work with young people. The Access Sport team are thrilled to welcome ARETÉ on board and we look forward to working together and making a genuine difference to the lives of disadvantaged young Londoners in the months ahead.
