Winter Olympic Legend signs for Rocket Sports

Thursday 6 August: Rocket Sports has announced the signing of Olympic curling champion Eve Muirhead OBE, who joins the agency as she begins the next chapter of her career, both on and off the ice.

One of Great Britain's most decorated Winter Olympians, Muirhead will return to competitive curling this season with her sights firmly set on representing Team GB at the Olympic Winter Games Alpes 2030.

Widely regarded as one of the most successful curlers of her generation, Muirhead enjoyed an extraordinary competitive career before retiring in 2022 following her historic Olympic gold medal at the Beijing Winter Games. Across four Olympic appearances, she won gold and bronze medals for Team GB, alongside a World Championship title, three European Championship titles, a World Mixed Doubles Championship and four World Junior Championship gold medals.

Since stepping away from competitive curling, Muirhead has remained at the heart of British Olympic sport, serving as Team GB's Chef de Mission at both the Gangwon 2024 Winter Youth Olympic Games and the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games.

Now returning to elite competition, Muirhead will work with Rocket Sports to develop her commercial partnerships, brand profile and opportunities beyond the ice as she targets a fifth Olympic Games.

Eve Muirhead said: "I'm delighted to be joining Rocket Sports at such an exciting stage of my career. As I return to competitive curling, it was important to find a team that shares my ambition and understands the opportunities that exist both during and beyond competition. Rocket Sports has an excellent reputation for supporting athletes to build meaningful, long-term careers, and I'm looking forward to working together as I begin this next chapter."

Jay de Andrade, Head of Athletes & Content at Rocket Sports, said: "We're incredibly proud to welcome Eve to Rocket Sports at such an exciting point in her career. Very few athletes have achieved what she has, both on and off the ice, and her decision to return to elite competition speaks volumes about her ambition, resilience and desire to keep pushing herself.

"To welcome our first Winter Olympian to the agency is a significant milestone for Rocket Sports. Eve's profile extends far beyond curling, with an incredible story, authentic personality and a proven ability to inspire audiences. As she begins this next chapter, we're excited to work alongside her to build meaningful commercial partnerships and opportunities that reflect everything she stands for, while supporting her journey back towards the Olympic Winter Games."
