Using our free site, athletes can increase their exposure with coaches, brands and fans by creating a free athlete profile and participating in online events from anywhere in the world. These virtual events range from virtual combines and showcases to remote try-outs and training programs. Each is hosted by top brands, camps, colleges and trainers across the globe. No matter where you are located, with GMTM you have the same access as those who can afford expensive travel and accommodation costs. We exist to level the playing field and give athletes total control over their athletic careers.
Our sports profiles look like the media profiles you're likely already familiar with (Rivals, 24/7, etc), but unlike many of these sites, athlete's have the ability to control what is shown and to whom. You can add the various teams you have played for, offers you may have received and even upload all of your highlights. Any information added can be restricted from public view and shared with coaches only or kept private entirely.
This profile is intended to help you throughout your athletic career much like LinkedIN might in the corporate world. Whether you're a high school athlete, college player, professional or even just an intramural rec league junkie, your GMTM profile is yours. It's your sports industry resume, the 'profile of record' for your athletic career.
