a recent report from Market Research Future, forecasts a boom for youth and amateur sports complexes, currently up 36% in the past 5 years. A $15.5 billion market in the US, expected to reach $41.2 billion by 2023
"to become a leader in the sports community worldwide through the development of elite sporting destinations that benefits sports for youth while entertaining the world."
™The BlockChain Sports Co., established in 2011, is about to make an investment in talented youth that pays off immediately and will last for a lifetime.
The BlockChain Sports Co., brings together a convergence of technologies aimed at delivering the "first-of-its-kind", "all-in-one", 'Grand Sports Initiative' fueling the furtherance and delivery of Soccer (European football), Golf, and Motorsports across the U.S. within three (3) uniquely funded, and well thought-out ready-to-build sports development projects.
Introduction
The Grand Sports Initiative is an ambitious, innovative venture that creates a unique sporting action and entertainment destination that caters to the emerging global sports tourism market, while investing in local communities to take advantage of and more firmly establish a soccer-loving culture in the United States through the Grand Sports Academies and surrounding Grand Sports Complexes.
The underlying motivation of the Grand Sports Initiative is a love of the sport of soccer, and a guiding belief that soccer can be a catalyst for social change, educational opportunity, and community revitalization.
The Grand Sports Initiative aims to provide talented, underserved foreign scholar-athletes with the opportunity to access world-class soccer skills training and development along with high-quality private primary and secondary education in the United States Grand Sports Academies and Grand Sports Elite Academies, which will merge unparalleled soccer and athletic training with an exceptional academic education for select
scholar-athletes; Grand Sports Academies will be established in Florida and Arizona.
The Grand Sports Academies would employ innovative (non-traditional) financing mechanisms (new sustainable funds based on a new economic logic) through visa-based partnerships with non-U.S. investors, to (indirectly) fund scholarships and financial aid packages that ensure access for all promising youth scholar-athletes, regardless of their financial circumstances.
The Grand Sports Academies are merely the first step in bringing to life the Grand Sports Initiative’s full vision: the creation of associated Grand Sports Complexes, which will be a new and innovative place-based operating model for building an all-in-one sporting action and entertainment destination that evokes a sense of community, while giving ardent fans the ability to invest in and connect with the athletes.
The Grand Sports Complexes will serve as a one-stop destination for sports and entertainment, branded restaurants, hotels, and shopping. It will support an “all-in” destination for sports tourism for the whole family.
At the heart of our innovative place-based operating model is an investment in a comprehensive world-class sports medicine program delivering advanced sports medicine treatments, leading-edge research, and
and creating a best-in-class health athletic performance center - a center for sports injury prevention
The potential for growth with the Grand Sports Initiative, through the Grand Sports Academies and associated Grand Sports Complexes, is exponential. The Initiative sets the foundation to change lives and communities across the Americas and while carrying out the Grand Sports Initiative’s mission to foster a passion for the “beautiful game.”
The next level
The Grand Sports is as much about creating a sporting destination fans must see in-person as it is building a worldwide streaming platform with hybrid experiences, fans must experience.
Through our sports social media platform (Cibus), we integrate technological (embodiment), psychological (presence), and behavioral (interactivity) perspectives into physical and virtual environments.
Sporting enthusiasts and fans alike do not have to live in a sports city to get into the spirit; the Grand Sports Initiative will offer viewers dynamic content control to create personalized live streams with full creative control.
By integrating immersive customer experiences, such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality, Grand Sports Initiative is reshaping the sports media world, driving value, and bridging the gap between experience and action.
By combining an intuitive E-wallet, a comprehensive digital online experience with a winning eCommerce platform, and an extensive electronic trading platform (SPE) that supports the exchange of athletes and fans tokens, the Grand Sports Initiative provides advanced sorts betting with live odds, spreads, and bets; we are building a one-stop digital destination.
Through Cibus, we are building an all-in-one digital sports marketplace and connecting a plethora of sport and non-sport participants. Fans, athletes, corporate sponsors, advertisers, organizers, regulators, service providers, sports vendors, merchants and online distribution companies will be able to connect in new powerful ways within our new digital world. Products and services will flow seamlessly. Non-stop entertainment, social channels, feeds, chats, investment and trading opportunities, gaming and virtual experiences will be made available at the tip of a finger.
The Block Sports
Block Sports presents this new and innovative place-based operating model following ten (10) years of extensive investments and development.
The all-in-one Grand Sports Initiative (“GSI”) sporting action and entertainment destination in Arizona, and in Florida, will offer a world of elite facilities, sports academies, state-of-the-art infrastructure, and venues supported by the construction of a new epicenter for American soccer delivery.
A social, economic, and cultural phenomenon arising from the unique interaction of activity, people and place.
The Grand Sports Initiative
Soccer promotes health, fitness, and social abilities, and a belief in the myriad benefits of the sport is what drives the GSI to develop the Grand Sports Academies (GSA). Through soccer, children learn skills vital to a healthy lifestyle, including fair play, team spirit, tolerance, and inclusion. Soccer increases understanding of one’s self and of others, both teammates and opponents.
GSI is an innovative and multifaceted venture that aims to revolutionize sports tourism, adolescent athletic development, and the entire sporting experience with stronger stakeholders relationships.
This also benefits broader society by addressing social and environmental challenges and by contributing to positive change.
Sports have become an important instrument in the portfolio of development organizations worldwide and their virtues have been heralded by political and sports figures alike.
“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, it has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.”
--Nelson R. Mandela.
Empowering the next generation
“Sport is a universal language that can bring people together, no matter what their origin, background, religious beliefs or economic status.”
--Kofi Annan, UN Secretary-General.
The primary goal of our place-based model is to
draw on an immense and largely untapped talent pool of disadvantaged children by identifying promising young athletes in these regions and connect, educate, and develop their sport-specific training using comprehensive athletic development models.
The GSA is establishing and developing cutting-edge science partners, which is supported by a professional elite coaching environment.
The GSA will be established to facilitate the development of non-U.S. youth scholar-athletes through a boarding program.
The GSA will provide unparalleled world-class soccer training and mentorship, as well as courses geared towards sports management, marketing, and other areas critical to the success of athletes.
“Much more than just performance, sport is synonymous with education and responsibility. It teaches young people strong values that help them grow.”
--Pernilla Wiberg
COVID-19 and its impact on our business
In March 2020, as COVID-19 abruptly halted sport as we know it across almost all ages, levels, and communities in North America and much of the world, perhaps few other sectors have been as devastated by COVID-19.
The impact on the sports industry worldwide is arguably as bad as anything since World War II, which caused a suspension of association football (soccer).
We argue that opening up America is about restoring the health of our society, not only about getting people back to work.
The COVID-19 pandemic has sent shockwaves around the world, leading to a public health emergency that has killed millions and plunged the global economy into what the International Monetary Fund (IMF) warns could be the sharpest downturn since the Great Depression.
While internet use went up with the pandemic, economies went down. A sharp global recession is expected as a result of the COVID-19 crisis (currently with a negative +5.9% GDP per capita according to the IMF) coupled with devastating actual and potential loss of life and health damage.
As of January 2021, developing countries have deployed and announced $10.5+ trillion in new fiscal measures to mitigate the impact, with the number expected to increase.
Government spending throughout the developed world has risen by over 13% of GDP (per IMF latest estimates). The situation is more nuanced and unpredictable for emerging and developing economies, especially those with thin domestic financial markets and poor and inadequate infrastructure.
The world of sport is among those sectors most visibly affected.
Sports have created a universal culture that transcends national boundaries and individual differences, with an influential and unifying presence in every corner of the world, using a variety of different platforms. At no other time in history have sports played such a dominant role in daily life.
When we are not physically involved in sports, we play them via video games or in fantasy leagues, or we watch them on television or online.
This is an opportunity to hit the refresh button on traditional methods of finance and deploy a “build back better” agenda of resetting growth along a path of improved sustainability.
The roll-out of 5G creates new markets that were previously unthinkable.
The Block Sports is pioneer in branded Real Estate, eSports, and Immigration Blockchain
Real Estate and technology experts have for years said that blockchain technology that underpins cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, could change the way real estate transactions are closed and recorded.
When we started developing the GSI, we had our minds set on combining a comprehensive Sports delivery model, supported by the prospects of an immigration and visa-based program that could fund major sports cities, entertain fans, and ultimately empower children. Bringing our "FANPORT" vision and its unique branded sporting developments that includes MATCHPORT, GRANDPORT, DREAMPORT and CREATIVEPORT VILLAGES (Match - Grand - Dream - Creative) to reality both in the physical world and through virtual experiences.
We have developed our own proprietary digital assets and tokens platform (SPE), which is a closed sourced blockchain technology using A.I. generated smart contracts.
Our unique personalized cutting-edge social media platform (Cibus) powered by an immersive centralized distributed ledger technology offers a complete development tool in order to design, finance, and build the most challenging, diversified mixed-use master-planned communities in the United States; the Grand Sports developments under the GSI.
SPE mission is to open the door to
unique global investment opportunities by creating a "single" platform with applications that caters to unconventional liquidity, electronic payments, and money remittance; SPE uses the world's most secured and centralized distributed Peer-to-Peer (P2P) mechanism with never-before seen transparency, accountability and visibility of crypto currency and digitally held assets that can be regulated.
Payment innovation that offers unprecedented convenience, and trusted real-time verification of transactions to facilitate fast and secure transmission of digital cross-border payments. Successful e-commerce enterprise and e-payment systems.
SPE aims to connect institutional investors, and high net worth individuals (HNWI) with better market opportunities for investment, trade, and finance worldwide.
Since the launch of GSI, our goal has been to connect the fans, teams, players, family members and friends of players through our entirely new dynamic, interactive digital platform. Instantly customizable using VR/AR customer experiences, and delivering intimate content specific to audiences within a specific location, "who's watching our channel."
Building the core infrastructure that will underpin tomorrow’s experiences.
Anything from age, gender, and location may be considered to customize content marketing, advertising, and promotion (conveying hyper contextual data.) Delivering specific, hyper-interactive, real time streaming and broadcasting within VR/AR personalized learning content, gameplay, and games to fans.. Targeting fans in specific locations with unique multimedia content, and specific solutions.
Location-based services effectively create an innovative e-commerce, and esports consumer-direct marketplace where "everyone is local."
“Sports have changed attitudes and culture in ways that seem subtle but ultimately made us think differently about ourselves and who we were.”
--Barack Obama, ex- president of the United States.
VR Sports (VRS)
The Cibus A.I. social multimedia platform provides comprehensive and immersive experiences that can accommodate any virtual attendance, with the highest-quality.
It further provides a unique tool for sports providers, sports networks, and sports leagues connecting to our platform - delivering consumer behavioral branded solutions anywhere in the world.
Looking boldly to the future of sports.
As more attendees have the ability engage and to interact on our platform, AR fans avatars will allow our audience to cheer, chant, and comment with multi-modal interactions during streams. (Hyper interactive and hyper current fan engagement.)
Not everything changes.
Major events will still require a ’stadium-of-the-future’ concept as its backbone, but with a brand-new world of digitally high density, and engaging business models meeting demands that are "true-to-its-audience" worldwide.
The transformation from traditional television to a digital platform featuring multi-modal streaming
technologies with shorter hyper-personalized interactive digital broadcasts will create an estimated $50 billion in licensing rights for sport by 2025.
Our platform will change digital fan engagement by creating a more interactive and inclusive virtual stadium, with far greater and more responsive, specific "individual" emotional experiences that keeps on growing.
All our local infrastructure, such as dining, amusement, retail, entertainment, and etc. will cater to the hyper connected online fan experience.
The GSI is ambitious in scope and has a number of future goals in mind - immediate opportunities and long-term expansion opportunities -- necessary to address the needs of the U.S. soccer construct and its future global position.
The COVID-19 pandemic is fueling the digital transformation of sports.
Cibus, a social media platform secured by digital identity, will allow corporate sponsors, service providers, leagues, clubs, organizers, fans, family and friends to follow each and every GSI athlete interactively and individually with uninterrupted, hyper-personalized A.I generated content-rich, behavioral, historical and demographic data. Athletic tracking with user control, player stats, blogs, reviews, training clips, and content captured and generated from practices et al. Providing huge advantages.
Rather than forestalling the ambitions of the GSI, the COVID-19 pandemic has shown that the world is hungry for human interaction at a new level and with common love. GSI’s plans are uniquely suited to meet this demand now and in the future.
Sports are undergoing more disruption than ever.
Sports tourism has the power to transform communities post COVID-19 through a "return to human capital" approach, and by developing “state-of-the-art” infrastructure that is funded using financial economies of scale. Investing in the future of disadvantaged children, we are fostering positive change across the Americas. We will succeed at all levels of the increasingly globalized, and hyper diversified delivery of sports. Powerful new voices will soon be echoing words of change.
GSI provides multiple growth opportunities and expansion strategies for both internal and external stakeholders. Nearly unimaginable revenue streams will support new youth opportunity and development, and boost direct foreign investment in the U.S. at a local level and on a state level in Florida and Arizona.
Sports are globally identified as a catalyst for social and
economic development.
Our lifestyle villages - Matchport, Grandport, Dreamport and Creativeport - will become world-leading elite training facilities, academies with strong co-branding partnerships and 'state-of-the-art' sports and entertainment venues with outdoor activities.
As year-round place-based sporting destinations accessible twenty four (24) hours per day, GSI could create as much as 10,000 local jobs and stimulate even more indirect jobs.
We know that providing turn-key facilities within an incredibly diverse space will get more people involved in sport. We look to build not only an epicenter
for multi-sports, but a legacy: master planning sport facilities and building the most innovative and iconic sports venues ever built!
