Welcome to Salary Capped, presented by MarketScale, where we explore the intersection of business and sports. Each week Tyler Kern will chat with the leaders, marketers and inventors that are powering sports into the future.

A New Era of Security

Throughout the various era’s of sports, key events have changed how we walk through the gates of our favorite ballpark. Security was increased following the events of September 11th and COVID-19 looks like it could potentially have a similar impact on how we enter stadiums. Instead of a metal detector or simple bag check, venues now have to look at implementing thermal imaging technology to track each guest before sports can resume safely with fans in attendance.

James Hayes of Guidepost Solutions has worked with the Atlanta Braves, Notre Dame, and the Dallas Cowboys to help enhance their security management and now they are helping guide franchises in what types of screenings must occur as well as how stadiums can operate in order to reopen while maximizing safety.

Sustaining the Future

As stadiums have gotten larger and grander, there has been a bigger emphasis in how to minimize the environmental impact on the local ecosystem.

As sports implement a plan to resume play this summer and fall, what will the new sustainability in sports look like?

I spoke with Kristen Fulmer of Recipric on how her firm is currently fielding research for their Sustainable Reopening and Operational Resiliency Strategy to effectively guide professional sports organizations on re-opening facilities not only safely but sustainably after COVD19.

Premier League and EFL are $179M apart over five years on a funding deal

Premier League and EFL are $179M apart over five years on a funding deal

The Premier League has raised its proposed annual payment to the rest of English professional soccer to about $239 million. The EFL wants $275 million, and EFL Chair Rick Parry is said to believe $239 million is still not enough. The higher offer would still need a further vote of Premier League clubs.

  • 01Over five years the reported gap is $179 million, smaller than a single year's payment under the Premier League's $239 million-a-year offer.
  • 02An EFL yes on Friday would not finish the deal. The $239 million-a-year offer still needs its own vote of Premier League clubs.
  • 03Deal length looks like the easier term to move. The EFL wants five years, the Premier League first proposed ten, and it has signaled it will compromise.

DAZN's Timberwolves deal puts 15 free games on KARE 11 for 1.5 million homes

DAZN's Timberwolves deal puts 15 free games on KARE 11 for 1.5 million homes

The Timberwolves, KARE 11 and DAZN will simulcast 15 Timberwolves games free over the air on KARE 11, reaching an estimated 1.5 million homes. Memphis got the same count on ABC24. Free broadcast TV could become a regular part of the streamer's local team rights deals.

  • 01Two NBA markets, one station group and the same 15-game count suggest free broadcast TV could become a regular part of how DAZN packages a team's local rights.
  • 02KARE 11 airs DAZN's full game production, talent included, so the station's own work shifts to promotion and pre- and postgame shows rather than producing the game.
  • 03The signal to watch is TEGNA naming more stations to carry the Grizzlies games across Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas and Kentucky. A similar extension in Minnesota's five-state territory would show the model scaling beyond one home-market station.

Stand-up Polska and what live comedy asks of ticketing

Stand-up Polska and what live comedy asks of ticketing

For operators running a busy calendar, the main test for a ticketing platform could be how well it handles a steady run of small on-sales.

  • 01For a fast-moving club calendar, platforms must keep up with events.
  • 02A ticketing deal counted in events describes how much work the platform does. It doesn't describe revenue: hundreds of club dates can sell fewer seats than a few arena nights.
  • 03When audiences discover a comedian online first, ticketing is the last step into a seat.
