CAA Sports Promotes Alexa Cook, Rob DeAngelis

As a sports enthusiast with a keen eye for the business side of things, I can’t help but be thrilled by the recent developments at CAA Sports Property Sales! The promotions of Alexa Cook and Rob DeAngelis to their new roles are a testament to their years of hard work and dedication.


The division within a prominent talent agency, responsible for securing high-value sponsorship agreements for sports venues such as the multi-million dollar deal naming the L.A. Clippers’ stadium as the Intuit Dome, has elevated veteran executives to top management positions.

Alexa Cook, who joined a Century City-based agency back in 2010 and has been dedicated to business development and sponsorship sales, has recently been appointed as the joint head of CAA Sports Property Sales, according to an announcement made on Wednesday. Cook will be working alongside Rob Slocum, her fellow co-head who is a seasoned veteran at CAA with over seventeen years of service under his belt and has led the property sales unit since 2021. The unit’s clients encompass Formula 1, Oracle Red Bull Racing, the Premier League, the United States Tennis Association, as well as expanding into the esports sponsorship market, where they have facilitated brand partnerships for Riot Games’ popular games like “League of Legends” and “Valorant”.

Rob DeAngelis, who was previously a co-head with Slocum, has been promoted to the position of Chief Revenue Officer at CAA Sports. In this new role, DeAngelis will be responsible for exploring revenue generation opportunities across all 19 divisions of the company. Prior to joining CAA in 2010, DeAngelis had served as General Manager at Van Wagner Communications.

Paul Danforth, CAA Sports’ managing director and president, expressed great pride in the exceptional performance of the entire CAA Sports Property Sales team. These professionals consistently achieve impressive results for our top-tier clients. One such standout is Alexa Cook, a globally respected sports sponsorship executive with extensive connections across various sectors. She is known for her intelligence, strategic thinking, and high regard in the industry. We are thrilled to have her collaborate with Rob Slocum as they steer our leading team in the sports industry.

Danforth stated, “Rob DeAngelis has served as a pioneering figure and high-yield producer at CAA Sports Property Sales for over ten years. Known for his inventive mindset, Rob’s forward-thinking strategies and relentless determination have enabled him to attract prestigious, non-related partners into the sports marketing industry. His connections are unparalleled, and we eagerly anticipate him generating distinctive income possibilities for our clients across various sectors of CAA Sports.
