It’s So Hard To Say Goodbye

Every athlete does it and every Sports Agent has to plan for it and deal with it. It is called retirement, and it is the end of an athlete’s career on the field/court and the beginning of an athlete’s effort to remain financially stable while not participating in his/her specialty any longer.

I came across an interesting article: [Things to Consider When Saying Goodbye: The Art of Retiring]. Of course, we would all love for our clients to retire with The on the top farewell, but as agents, we often times do not get to choose the path that our clients take on the field/court of play.

p.s. – I will try to include an appropriate video for each post from now on. Tell me if you like this idea or not. For this post, I found the documentary of Patrick Roy’s retirement to be appropriate. Enjoy: [YouTube – Patrick Roy’s retirement].
