Talent isn’t the issue; access is.
In this episode of The Playeasy Warmup, Kerri Shields sits down with Harvey Scruggs, CEO & President of H3 Athletics, to break down how he’s building a platform designed to create real opportunity for athletes.
What started as a gap in exposure has evolved into a multi-sport ecosystem – spanning tournaments, showcases, media, and new formats – all built around one idea: athletes deserve better platforms.
They get into how youth sports is evolving, what separates a good event from a truly memorable one, and why content is now a core part of the athlete experience – not an afterthought.
They also dive into how destinations can better support events, where growth is happening next, and why new formats like flag football are creating major opportunities across the industry.
If you’re thinking about event strategy, athlete development, or how to scale sports experiences, this episode is worth your time.
