ABOUT US

ABOUT DTA SPORTS MANAGEMENT

At DTA Sports Management, we believe representation should go beyond contracts and negotiations. True athlete management is about development, accountability, preparation, and building a foundation that lasts long after the game is over.

Founded on the principles of purpose, discipline, and legacy, DTA Sports Management was created to support athletes who are committed to greatness both on and off the field. We work with driven, coachable individuals who understand that success requires more than talent — it requires structure, leadership, professionalism, and the right team behind you.

Our mission is simple: Dedicated to Athletes.

That means putting the athlete first in every decision we make. From strategic representation and career guidance to athlete development and personal branding, we are focused on helping our clients maximize opportunities while protecting their future.

Founded by former NFL player Michael “Moon” Thompson, DTA brings firsthand experience, mentorship, and real-world understanding to the athlete journey. We know the demands, pressures, and responsibilities that come with pursuing success at a high level, and we are committed to helping athletes navigate those challenges with confidence and purpose.

At DTA Sports Management, we are not just building careers — we are helping build leaders, brands, and legacies.

This is not just representation. This is elevation.
