LOS ANGELES - December 15, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Range Sports, a division of entertainment management company Range Media Partners, today announced that industry leader Greg Luckman joins as Co-President working with existing President Will Funk, who launched Range Sports in July 2022. 

Range Sports manages and advises best-in-class sports talent, properties and brands while also investing in owned and operated IP. In conjunction with Range Media's existing film and television production studio, Range Sports also operates a robust non-scripted and scripted content production business. The addition of Luckman will provide the opportunity for Range Sports to accelerate growth in all areas.

"I've known and respected Greg for years and couldn't be more excited to welcome him to the team. He's an outstanding executive with a long successful history building world-class sports marketing agencies. His deep understanding of the business and ability to connect with brands and properties will expand Range Sports' capabilities and greatly accelerate growth," said Will Funk, President of Range Sports.

Luckman began his career at Momentum Worldwide (an IPG company), where he rapidly rose through the ranks to become the President of the New York Office and the Global Director of the award-winning American Express account. In 2011, Luckman then became the Global Head of Brand Consulting at CAA Sports, a new division he launched, which grew to become an international team of 250+ people representing prestigious brand marketers such as Bose, JPMorgan Chase and Mondelez and managing over $2 billion in rights deals. Most recently, he served as the CEO of Allied Sports, an emerging sports marketing agency that represented clients including Cisco, LG, Orlando Magic and the NWSL. Luckman is a three-time recipient of the Sports Business Journal "Forty Under 40" award, making him an exclusive member of the SBJ Hall of Fame.

"I'm thrilled to be partnering with Will and the immensely talented team at Range. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to join a rapidly growing organization uniquely positioned to serve clients across representation, content creation, brand partnerships and properties in all facets of sports," said Luckman.
