Notable Women in Sports: Chellee Siewert

Class of 2024

Since founding Waukesha-based Capture Sports and Entertainment in 2011, Chellee Siewert has used her sports marketing and nonprofit experience to support players, coaches and teams across all sports.

“She notably helped the JJ Watt Foundation raise millions through sold-out celebrity softball games – the most recent game occurred this May in Sugar Land, Texas,” said Katie Kozak, communications director for Capture Sports and Entertainment. “She helps not only NFL athletes but Olympians, NBA stars – and more – build their brands and use their platforms to create a legacy that will live beyond the game.”

The company has helped raise more than $30 million since 2011 for its clients’ nonprofit organizations. Capture Sports works with nearly 20 high-profile athletes as well as clients in the entertainment sector.

Siewert currently co-hosts a podcast, “Athletes Doing Good,” in which athletes talk about the importance of giving back and the causes that matter most to them. The podcast has had nearly 100 guests.
