About Us

At Collegiate Crest Collectibles, we bridge the passion of college sports fandom with the power of NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness), ensuring student-athletes benefit financially from their hard-earned reputations.

We specialize in sourcing and selling high-quality, authentic, and officially licensed collectibles, allowing fans to own exclusive memorabilia while supporting their favorite athletes. Unlike traditional sports merchandisers, we work directly with student athletes to create unique, limited-edition items for their fans to collect and enjoy.

Our goal is to connect fans and athletes in meaningful ways, turning enthusiasm into a financial opportunity for the heroes of tomorrow. With a keen focus on authenticity, quality, and fair compensation, our collectibles help student-athletes build their personal brands while giving fans something truly special to cherish.

Our Limited Series collectibles keep the scarcity and value of each item. We want our collectibles to be as unique as the players they feature.

Collegiate Crest is unique in the NIL space because our goal is to offer meaningful NIL programs to ALL Student/Athletes on campus across all sports (both Men’s and Women’s). Every Student/Athlete is a star with Collegiate Crest.

Authentic. Exclusive. Student/Athlete-Driven. That is Collegiate Crest Collectibles.

About

MEET THE FOUNDERS

As a former collegiate athletes and casual sports memorabilia collectors, John and Adam understand the deep connection fans have with their favorite teams and players.

“Collegiate Crest Collectibles was born through my frustration with all of the “noise” around NIL deals and the disparity between the “Star Players” and the rest of the team. To me, there were too few college athletes benefiting from NIL. Also, as a father of three athletically accomplished daughters, I was concerned about the general disadvantage female athletes faced when it comes to finding valuable NIL programs.”

– John Anderson


“The goal of Collegiate Crest is to bridge that gap and work closely with our university partners to bring multiple NIL deals to all Student Athletes on campus in both Men’s and Women’s sports.”

– Adam deMalignon

Today, we work directly with universities and their student athletes to bring fans authentic and licensed collectible pieces that tell the real stories of collegiate sports. Our commitment to authenticity, quality, and exceptional customer service isn’t just business – it’s personal

Frequently Asked Questions

Collegiate Crest offers a revenue share program with our opt-in, non-exclusive university Student/Athletes to promote & support their NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) program(s). This means a percent of revenue generated by the sales of a Student/Athlete’s collectible will go toward that Student/Athletes NIL program.

Each collectible made by Collegiate Crest will have a pre-determined limited “mint” value. This means if a series is only 50 custom Commemorative Display Footballs, then only 50 units will be made available. Each of our items will be “series numbered”. Example a football marked “01/50” would be the 1st ball out of a total of 50 made available. No more than the “minted” value will be sold beyond that. This ensures the scarcity of out items and demonstrates to the buyer that they truly have a unique piece of their player’s history.
