FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Former CPL, USL, and League1 Executive Launches New Initiative to Transform the Landscape of Soccer Management Across North America
Toronto, ON – December 3, 2024 – Redefining Success Off the Pitch: Ronic Sports Management’s Vision for Sustainable Growth for the Beautiful Game
After spending the last 15 years working at all levels of soccer management across North America, including youth, pro-am, professional, and the Canadian Men’s National Team, Rob Jenkins has recently announced the official launch of Ronic Sports Management, a groundbreaking initiative designed to provide essential resources and support for soccer clubs and teams at all levels. This announcement comes on the heels of Jenkins being involved in 4 successful team launches including Calgary Foothills FC (USL2), Cavalry FC (CPL), Electric City FC (L1O) and most recently The Borough FC (L1O).
“North American soccer clubs often overlook the critical importance of strong operations and management,” Jenkins explained. “As a result, clubs struggle with sustainability, and staff face burnout. Ronic Sports Management aims to fill this gap with practical solutions, ensuring soccer organizations thrive both on and off the pitch.”
Empowering Soccer Clubs to Achieve Unprecedented Success - these innovative programs mark a new era in soccer management.
Along with its one on one Club Consulting Services, Ronic Sports Management introduces two flagship programs designed to address the operational and management challenges that many clubs face:
Ronic 360 – Club Optimization Program
The Ronic 360 – Club Optimization Program is an affordable 8 module group consulting and training hybrid solution for soccer clubs. The program encompasses a holistic approach and integrates hands-on workshops, online content (self-directed and instructor led), custom assignments and projects for clubs. Designed for tangible results, the program addresses critical areas like strategic planning, marketing, staffing, club culture, revenue generation, financial sustainability, and more. Ronic 360 ensures clubs are equipped to compete in today’s soccer landscape while laying the foundation for long-term success. Registration for the January 2025 intake is now open and spots in the innovative program are filling up fast.
“Our goal with Ronic 360 is to provide clubs with a full spectrum of resources and expertise they need to thrive. It’s not just about optimization—it’s about revolutionising how clubs think and operate,” Jenkins emphasised. “This program will not only help Club management sleep soundly at night knowing that their club is running properly, it will also give them a clear leg up on the competition.”
Ronic Certified – A New Standard for Team Managers
Ronic Certified offers a 4-level education and certification series designed specifically for team managers from youth right up to the professional game, providing the tools and expertise needed to foster equity, inclusivity, and operational excellence at the team level. From Level C, which is currently available for free, to the elite Level Pro, this certification pathway delivers practical skills and real-world solutions. We offer an exclusive network of Ronic Certified professionals, connected to the forefront of soccer innovation.
“Ronic Certified is about transforming how soccer teams operate to create meaningful, lasting impacts for players, fans, and communities,” Jenkins said “Team managers are critical to the success of teams and clubs, and now they finally have the training and support they deserve.”
Bringing over 15 years of experience to the game…
With over 15 years of experience in soccer management and a deep passion for the sport, Jenkins has identified critical gaps in how soccer clubs and teams are managed in North America. Through Ronic Sports Management, Jenkins seeks to elevate the game, create stronger pathways to professional leagues, and ensure that soccer clubs and teams can reach their full potential. Ronic Sports Management is the culmination of Jenkins’ vision to provide soccer managers and clubs with the comprehensive resources and training he once sought.
Be Part of the Revolution
The launch of Ronic Sports Management comes at a pivotal moment as soccer continues to grow in North America. With programs like Ronic Certified and Ronic 360, Jenkins invites soccer team managers, clubs, and stakeholders to join him in changing the game nationwide.
