Olusola Olumogba
Pro Football Scout in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Olusola Olumogba is a former collegiate athlete who like many others had the goals of playing professional football. After graduating from the University of Western Ontario, he pursued professional football opportunities that never came to fruition. Following this, he began a brief stint as a CFL agent, which led him to finding his passion as a pro scout and the birth of InstantScouting in 2011.
Through his challenges of making it to a professional football career, Olusola committed himself to ensuring that athletes do not face the same obstacles he faced on his journey to the pros. Since the launch of InstantScouting, Olusola has helped create opportunities for athletes in numerous leagues and has been recently awarded one of the Top 30 Under Thirty Award by Sports Launch Magazine.
Being a former resident of the criminal justice system, Olusola began to focus his efforts on providing resources for other similar individuals in need of positive coaching in order to have successful reintegration and rebuilding of their lives. He believes that if he can lead by example he can show other correctional residents that there is hope for a positive life after prison. His efforts are geared towards channeling the entrepreneurial passion and staying committed to self-improvement.
