Yopa has announced an exclusive new partnership with Athlete Transition Accelerator (ATA) – an organisation that supports elite athletes as they transition into new professional opportunities.

This collaboration will provide former and current athletes with a clear pathway to build their own estate agency businesses through the Associate model, drawing on their transferable skills in discipline, leadership, and performance.

“We are delighted to be partnering with Athlete Transition Accelerator,” said Greenacre.

“As firm believers in supporting people with transferable skills, this represents an opportunity to give entrepreneurial individuals leaving the sporting world an exciting new chance to grow something of their own.

“With the backing of our Associate support programme, and the wider community of 200 Yopa Agents nationwide, we’re confident we can help some of the UK’s most disciplined individuals realise their next goals.”

ATA co-founder Karl Birch echoed the opportunity this partnership provides: “We’re proud to be partnering with Yopa to provide this unique and exciting opportunity to elite athletes across the UK.

“Having consulted with hundreds of current and former athletes, we recognise a consistent need – the desire to build viable business opportunities that replace the fear of transition with confidence and genuine excitement.

“Through this partnership, athletes can explore their entrepreneurial ambitions while still performing at the highest level, developing skills that enhance both their sporting and professional journeys.

“It’s been built in dialogue with athletes, for athletes – a practical, real pathway that offers ownership, flexibility, and purpose beyond the game.”
