Fanatics is helping professional athletes transition to life after the final buzzer — or pitch, or whistle. Through the one-week immersion program, players get in-classroom learning combined with hands-on experiences in Fanatics' different business units. The company says it is uniquely positioned to help athletes lay the groundwork for the next chapter of their careers with its wide-ranging sports portfolio. Athletes in the program get a first-hand look at everything from Fanatics' collectables business to its apparel company to its VIP and loyalty programs. Harrison joined 10 other professional athletes in Los Angeles this week for the Fanatics program.

Ashford will report directly to both CEO Michael Rubin and CFO Glenn Schiffman. Each of the three Fanatics' businesses — commerce, collectibles, betting & gaming — have heads of HR that report to those respective business CEOs. Prior to joining Fanatics, Ashford was a strategic advisor to private-equity firm Sycamore Partners. He's currently the chairman of the board of pharmaceutical company Perrigo , and sits on the board of Syndio — a private, venture-backed HR tech company. Last week, Fanatics announced it hired Andrea Ellis to be the chief financial officer of its betting and gaming division, which is expected to launch in January.
