Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist Renews Contract with HeadRush Creative

Soccer legend Kristine Lilly has renewed her contract with HeadRush Creative for the year 2011.  Kristine has relied on HeadRush to facilitate her endorsements, appearances, press engagements and creative needs since the company’s formation in 2007.

As the second all-time leading scorer in U.S. and world history and arguably the best female soccer player to ever play the sport, Kristine has been offered a number of endorsement opportunities since her first appearance as a national team member in August, 1987.  HeadRush has secured and will continue to manage these opportunities for Kristine with brands such as Stonyfield Farm, Inc., Adidas and Gatorade.  In addition, HeadRush will be responsible for the marketing of the Kristine Lilly Soccer Academy, which has promoted the skill and character development of young soccer players since 1995.  “Strong creative and branding expertise coupled with excellent customer service makes choosing HeadRush a no-brainer,” said Lilly. “They continue to exceed my expectations in the quality and efficiency of their work.”

This year, HeadRush will manage Kristine’s retirement from competitive soccer and assist in the launch of the Team First Soccer Academy, a world-class instructional soccer camp she will host with former teammates Mia Hamm and Tisha Venturini-Hoch.

“We are excited to represent Kristine in the next phase of her legendary career,” said James Wish, co-owner of HeadRush Creative.  “Her commitment to player development and her humanitarian contributions inspire us every day.  We are committed to fostering positive relationships with Kristine’s sponsors and we’re excited to produce quality materials for her soccer academies, marketing campaigns and personal appearances.”
