"Ng’s determination and resilience have played a significant role in her accomplishments, and despite stepping down, she remains influential in the sports industry."
"After achieving historic milestones as the first woman G.M. in a major men's league, Ng faces new opportunities in a professional women's softball league."
Kim Ng, a trailblazer in sports management, became the first female general manager in a major men's league when she joined the Miami Marlins in 2020. She played a key role in leading the Marlins to the postseason but chose not to renew her contract when a new position was created above her. After stepping down in 2023, Ng was approached by Jon Patricof, CEO of Athletes Unlimited, to lead a new professional softball league, marking a new chapter in her impressive career. Ng's experience in baseball, paired with her background as a softball player, uniquely positions her for this role.
