FVA to Host Name, Image and Likeness Workshop on Sunday, May 4
NEENAH — WIAA member schools will vote April 24, 2025 whether to allow student-athletes to receive compensation for their Name, Image and Likeness (NIL).
If the proposal passes, the Fox Valley Association has partnered with Influential Athlete, an NIL management company, to offer an informational workshop to help student-athletes and families understand the rights, responsibilities and opportunities of this change, according to a news release.
The workshop will be held on Sunday, May 4 at 6 p.m. at Pickard Auditorium at Neenah Middle School (former Neenah High School, 1275 Tullar Road). The workshop is only open to student-athletes from Fox Valley Association schools and will not be livestreamed or recorded. The workshop will not be held if WIAA member schools reject the proposed NIL legislation on April 24. It will assist student-athletes with the following:
- NIL Basics – Understand what NIL is and how to navigate it while staying compliant to protect your eligibility.
- The Power of Influence – Recognize the influence you already have and learn how to leverage it for NIL opportunities.
- Personal Branding – Understand what a personal brand is and how to build an authentic one to set you apart in the NIL space.
- Partnerships – Learn how to find and manage strategic partnerships to maximize your NIL potential in the future.
This workshop will highlight the steps student-athletes can begin to take now to best position themselves when their window of NIL opportunity opens. Preparing early will set a strong foundation for success as they move forward.
This one-hour session will conclude with a brief Q&A, providing time for attendees to ask questions and gain clarity on the topics discussed.
