Stephanie J. Geosits, C.Dir.
Founder, All About Sports
I launched All About Sports because I believe in the power of sport to improve people’s lives and change the world. I have had the privilege of working with some of the most amazing athletes, brilliant coaches, award-winning journalists, and the top sports minds at all levels of the game. I have learned something from each experience, and through All About Sports my goal is to help as many sports organizations as possible make an impact in their communities - big and small.
I was born into a sports-loving family in Emmaus, PA and my parents encouraged me to pursue my dream of working in sports (even though at the time it was unheard of because I was a girl). My athletic ability is inversely proportional to my love of sports (and I love sports A LOT) so I knew my talents would better suit me for an off the field role. I grew up loving the Yankees, Penn State Football, and reading as many sports sections and sport magazines I could. My first job in high school was covering local sports for the weekly newspaper, the East Penn Press. (I was too young to drive so my parents dutifully carted me around from one remote field or stadium to another.) Once I realized that sports could become my vocation, I was hooked. It’s been a common thread throughout my academic work and my professional career.
My dream job as a kid was to work for the New York Yankees, and I had the opportunity to serve as their Editor in Chief. I covered baseball for the Associated Press and mlb.com. I helped develop hockey programs in minority communities for the NHL. For more than two decades I have called Toronto home. I have helped lead some of the largest sport organizations in Canada, and launched programs on both sides of the border, working with US clients as well.
My passion for sport governance led me to earn a Chartered Directors Certificate through the DeGroote School of Business at McMaster University in 2024. I serve on Canada Soccer's Board of Directors and work with many clients on improving their governance.
Coming out of my work on the sports documentaries "Willie" and "Beyond Their Years" I've expanded into screenwriting through the Writers Circle Toronto.
In my spare time I travel the globe to the Olympics, Women’s World Cup, Men’s World Cup and myriad events like the Kentucky Derby, Rose Bowl, and MLB All Star Game. My life has been All About Sports and now I want to share my knowledge and experience with all of you.
