CHAPEL HILL, N.C., May 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Legacy League, the first automated NFT platform, opens its marketplace for fans to buy and sell college athletes’ digital collectibles securely without a crypto account. Legacy League enables all athletes in every sport at every school to mint an NFT collection for free, earning the highest payout in the market for their NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness).
In conjunction with its marketplace opening and the 50th anniversary of Title IX, Legacy League launches the first NFT collection for black female gymnasts featuring National Champion Derrian Gobourne and several groundbreaking NCAA Div I athletes. The “Black Girl Magic” NFT series offers unique buyer engagement, including How-To videos and personalized interaction with fans.

2022 ALL-SEC Auburn gymnast Aria Brusch adds, “This collection is an ideal way to leverage my NIL with NFTs while honoring strong black female gymnasts in the NCAA. We want to inspire younger gymnasts to embrace their beauty and culture as they pursue their passion.”
The digital collaboration was nominated for the Crypto Award at the Inaugural NIL Summit which recognizes outstanding student-athlete campaigns leveraging the blockchain.
