1. One of the best things I saw:

Because "the WNBA is so important" - ICYMI, this little guy met MVP A'ja Wilson and it's as heart melting as you'd expect. Watch the clip from the Jennifer Hudson show.

2. Opportunities:

If you'e headed to the NWSL Championship in California next weekend, first, consider me jealous, second, check out this Victory Party on Nov. 20 to celebrate amazing women changing the game on and off the field.

Also, funding opportunities with upcoming deadlines:

• Justworks Capacity Building Grants (Up to $100,000, deadline: Nov. 14)
• NBA Foundation Grants ($25,000-$250,000, deadline: Nov. 14)

Also, never too soon to get ahead of your 2026 planning - in late February will be the 2nd Sport Fundraising Summit in London on Feb. 25 and also the George Washington University Sports Philanthropy Summit in Washington D.C. on Feb. 26.
