Do you believe that sport can truly change the world?

Hello. We are No2ndPlace and we believe sport has the power to change the world. Our mission is to help the world win with a collective of sport's leading thinkers, activists, creative minds and icons.

A bit about us 

We’re a newly formed agency that is growing fast. We use the power of sport to create enduring social change which is measured by the impact we have on society. Sport teaches us, tests us, and shapes us. It drives cultures and empowers progress. As a collective, we help sports bodies, brands and not-for-profits stand for more and develop campaigns and projects driving awareness of societal issues, educating communities, and driving actionable societal change.

We are fortunate enough to work with a broad range of clients incl. FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023, Standard Chartered, the Diversity and Inclusion in Sport Alliance and UN Women to help impact the world through sport
