LBM Management was founded by Yves
Lejeune and his wife Olga Garanina in
1997. They are my dedicated partners and
close friends. We work together in
Europe and they provide my clients with
a constant physical presence overseas.
Yves is truly someone I view as a
brother – a man I trust with my life and
whom I know values each of my clients as
highly as I do. I negotiate and work on
all overseas contracts; however, Yves
and I know, talk to and enter into each
contract jointly for each client. This
requires each team to know, respect and
honor two contacts when a client is
playing for them. LBM was founded on
three ideals: (1) to provide clients the
services and support that Yves remembers
needing and wanting when he was a coach;
(2) to provide clients the attention and
dedication they have a right to expect
from an agent; and (3) to provide “
global quality service in an ethical
manner.” Olga played professionally
throughout Europe. Together, we unite
our backgrounds as a player, coach and
attorney to bring over 30 years
experience as agents. In 2006 Stefano
Luigini was added to our family. Stefano
is an agent/attorney who focuses on
Italy and Spain. Yves, Stefano and I
have placed over 1,000 athletes in 30
countries. We combine different areas of
knowledge and experience to provide our
clients with the best opportunities
possible. Together we have created a
system that highlights the character and
integrity of our clients, as well as the
teams and coaches with whom we choose to
work. See:

Tess is a city girl. Tess is smart. Tess
is sassy. Tess loves high fashion. Best
of all, Tess is a real, live person. Now
in her early 20's, Tess has had a size
11 foot for as long as she can remember.
Sadly, most stores have never recognized
the existence of her size 11 feet. When
she would spot that perfect shoe, and
ask to see it in a size 11, she was met
with a blank stare, or perhaps a
suggestion that she look for something
in a "comfort" shoe. So for years, Tess
wore flip-flops, even in the dead of
winter. Seeing her daughter barefoot in
the snow was the last straw for Tess'
mother. She decided to take matters into
her own hands. Today, under the fitting
name Barefoot Tess, she designs her own
line of large shoes, and works with
popular shoe companies to provide fun,
fashionable shoes for women with large
feet. Thanks to Barefoot Tess, women and
girls like Tess need never go barefoot
again. See:

Wiesel Sports is proud to support The
Pajama Program. The Program’s purpose is
to create a warm and nurturing bedtime
environment for children who are
vulnerable and living in difficult
circumstances by providing them warm
pajamas and an inspirational bedtime
story. Many of the pajamas and books
collected go to children who are waiting
to be adopted, organizations that care
for the homeless, orphanages, group
homes and shelters. Most of these
children have never owned a pair of
pajamas before. There are chapters
located across the U.S. and in some
areas overseas. They also have three
Reading Centers located in New York and
New Jersey. There are many ways to help
this organization, such as holding a
pajama and book drive, delivering
collected pajamas, or reading to
children.
