Power Moves DMV: NIL, Sports & Student-Athlete Life

Welcome to Power Moves DMV!

This group is for student-athletes, parents, coaches, and community supporters in the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area who want to better understand and prepare for the evolving world of college athletics and Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL).

Whether you’re a middle, high school, or college student-athlete or parent/guardian exploring NIL opportunities, this is your home for real conversations, educational meetups, and actionable tools.

Together, we’ll dive into:

• NAIA and NCAA eligibility & recruiting tips
• How NIL works (B2B, Collectives, and Revenue)
• Mental, emotional, and social readiness
• Personal branding + team building
• Local events, workshops, speakers, and community networking

Let’s build. Let’s lead. Let’s win - on and off the field!
