About Deportivo Management
Deportivo Management was built to bridge structured U.S. league standards with the operational realities of Latin America.
The firm supports structured market development initiatives, international competition operations, and team travel strategy across the Americas.
With on-the-ground presence in Colombia and experience spanning 17 countries, the model is grounded in disciplined execution, multicultural fluency, and long-term institutional alignment.
Founder & Principal — Andres Betancur
After nearly two decades operating inside global sport — most recently supporting Major League Baseball’s international portfolio and FIFA tournament environments — I founded Deportivo Management to bridge structured league standards with the operational realities of cross-border sport.
Those years inside high-stakes environments shaped a disciplined, execution-first mindset: align stakeholders early, reduce friction across jurisdictions, and protect competitive integrity from arrival through departure.
Today, I operate between the United States and Colombia, advising clubs, leagues, conferences, and federations navigating structured market development, international competition, and team travel strategy across the Americas.

Our Approach
Our work begins with sport.
Sporting standards and technical requirements set the benchmark. Operational realities and team travel strategy determine execution. We align both.
When local environments, venues, or carriers, are unfamiliar, we reduce friction through structure, clear communication, and steady oversight.
Disciplined planning. Quite coordination. Accountable delivery.
Execution Platform
Team Conexion serves as the firm’s operational execution platform — supporting structured market initiatives, competition servicing, and team travel strategy, across the Americas.
