An Orlando-based investment platform has been launched to combine ownership in sports teams with investment in dynamic mixed-use developments anchored by stadium districts.

Momentous Sports has been founded by Magnolia Hill Partners and is supported by athlete partners John Elway, Tim Tebow, and Blake Bortles—alongside Andrew Cathy’s private real estate firm, Four Stones, Scott Friedman, and other strategic investors.

Momentous, which says it is ‘built by competitors, for competitors’, has an approach positioned for long-term growth, and is aiming to unlock scalable opportunities while diversifying sources of potential upside.

The group’s first project is already underway in Jacksonville, Florida.

Sporting JAX features both men’s and women’s professional soccer, with the men’s team competing in the USL Championship and the women’s team in the Gainbridge Super League.

The club also operates one of the largest youth soccer academies in the country, serving over 12,000 athletes.

Momentous Sports serves as lead investor for Sporting JAX and is developing a comprehensive mixed-use district that will include housing, retail, hospitality, and public spaces.

This stadium-anchored development will serve as its flagship model for future opportunities across the United States and internationally.

Momentous says its platform represents a new approach to sports investment—one that recognizes the power of sports as a catalyst for broader community development.

By combining team ownership with strategic real estate development, the group says it creates multiple value streams while building lasting community assets.

Moentous said, “This is just the beginning. We invite qualified investors to join us as we build a platform where championship leadership, sports ownership, and transformative real estate development align.”
