Entertainment Group Move Into Sport

Roar Global has completed a six-figure acquisition of SJ Dent and Co sports management.

With the takeover of SJ Dent however, Roar Global’s client roster now includes rugby icons such as Brian O’Driscoll and Martin Offiah and ex-football stars such as John Barnes MBE and Neil Ruddock to name a few.

SJ Dent, founded by lawyer Simon Dent, also specialise in the management of young 2012 hopefuls.
Shalit said: ‘sport today is an integral part of entertainment across the world and, as such, holds huge a huge attraction for global brands to who want to be associated with sporting heroes’.
