FAQs
FAQs
Have more questions about Grit Circle Leaders Network?
What is the Grit Circle Leaders Network?
It’s a private membership network for footballers. Members get access to global events, mentorship from leaders in sports and business, and a curated peer group designed to open real opportunities beyond the game.
Who is it for?
The Network is built for active and recently retired players who want access to new industries, mentorship, and introductions. It’s also supported by agents, clubs, and associations that invest in their players’ long-term success.
What’s the difference between Carrera 2.0 and the Grit Circle Leaders Network?
The Grit Circle Leaders Network is different. It’s an ongoing membership network that gives you access to mentors, global events, and curated introductions that turn your plan into real opportunities.
Carrera 2.0 is a 4-week intensive designed to reset your identity, map your skills, and create a clear career plan. It’s the foundation every player needs to prepare for life after football.
You can join either one on its own, but most players start with Carrera 2.0 and then move into the network. Together, they give you both the clarity and the access to build a successful career beyond the game.
What kind of opportunities can I expect?
Members connect with leaders across business, media, tech, entrepreneurship, and sport. That means introductions to real-world projects, mentorships, boardroom opportunities, and pathways you won’t find on your own.
How is this different from LinkedIn or other networks?
The Grit Circle Leaders Network is curated. Every member is vetted. You get warm introductions, private events, and high-trust connections designed for professional athletes.
What’s included in the membership?
Monthly invite-only events with global leaders
Training on pioneering industries and career paths
Personalized mentorship and feedback
A private digital network of elite athletes and executives
Can I join the Network without completing Carrera 2.0?
