Stephen Curry, Lauren Holiday, Harry Kane, Candace Parker, Michael Strahan and Lindsey Vonn will assist Avenue in offering their deep insights about the sports landscape.

“Stepping into this new leadership role is a deeply personal next step in my journey with adidas,” Parker said in a news release at the time of the announcement in May. “From high school to college to playing pro to now, this appointment by adidas symbolizes a shared commitment to making impactful change and setting new benchmarks for the future of women’s sports. It’s not just about products; it’s about fostering a movement focused on innovation, representation, and access.”
