The Sports Affinity Group, began in 2020 as one of FJMC’s first responses to isolation brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic. There are now a dozen affinity groups serving thousands of FJMC members and non-members.

Our Sports Affinity Group brings you sports stars, broadcasters, owners, sports writers, authors, or anyone related to the sports world with a unique perspective.

Do you know someone who would be a great presenter? Let us know by emailing us at or when you fill out a registration form for one of our online events.

We look forward to seeing you online,

David Kravitz & Danny Mandeau
FJMC Sports Affinity Group Leaders
