An actionable setup guide for coaches and sports professionals who want a profile that is clear, credible, and ready to share.

Most people in sports have earned more than their resume shows.

Their story is scattered across old bios, internal directories, PDFs, text threads, and word of mouth. OG1 exists to bring that story into one place you control — a clear, credible professional identity that can be evaluated at a glance.

The good news is that you do not need hours to build something useful. You need a focused first 15 minutes.

In your first 15 minutes on OG1, focus on five things:

Your photo, banner, role, and sport create the first impression.

Do not overcomplicate this step. You are not trying to look flashy. You are trying to look clear.

A strong profile opening helps someone understand your lane immediately. A coach might lead with a role like "Assistant Coach | Women's Basketball | Player Development." A sports professional might lead with "Director of Operations | Football" or "Sports Performance Coach | Soccer."

Clarity beats crowded every time.

Your statement is one of the fastest ways to turn a profile from a collection of facts into a credible identity.

A good statement does not try to say everything. It gives people a clean, honest sense of how you work.

A simple place to start is: I help [people/team/program] do [outcome] through [approach].

A coach might write: "I help players grow into more confident, disciplined competitors through clear teaching, daily standards, and relationship-based development."

A sports professional might write: "I help teams operate more smoothly through organized systems, proactive communication, and dependable day-to-day execution."

That is enough to create signal.

Your bio should make it easier for the right person to understand three things:

This is not the place to copy and paste a resume. It is the place to translate your experience into a profile someone can understand quickly.

Highlight your role, your level, your strengths, and the kind of environments where you do your best work. If you are a coach, that might include player development, recruiting, culture, or teaching. If you work in operations, performance, video, administration, scouting, or another part of sport, focus on the value you create and how your work supports the team.

Your OG1 Profile should become your source of truth.

The feed works best when it reflects the community you are building.

Follow people whose work, standards, and ideas make you better. That may include head coaches, assistant coaches, coordinators, directors of operations, sports performance staff, scouts, analysts, administrators, and leaders across sport.

A useful feed is not built by accident. It is built by intention.

The right follows help turn OG1 into more than a profile. They turn it into a place where you learn, contribute, and stay visible in the right circles.

Once your basics are in place, your profile should be ready to send. That is the point.

When someone asks for your background, your philosophy, your body of work, or a quick introduction, your OG1 Profile should already be ready to go. It should function like a digital handshake: clear, credible, and easy to share.

Do not wait until an opportunity appears to organize your identity. Get it ready now.

OG1 is not asking you to invent a new story. It is helping you own the one you have already earned.

Next step: update three things today — your statement, your bio, and your headline — then send your profile link to one trusted colleague.
