4U Management is growing...
We have the pleasure of adding Todd Provost to the 4U Management Team!
I have known Todd for many years and am excited about working with him. Here's a little bit about him...
After 13 highly productive years in the non-profit sector (including several successful years on the campus of UCLA and more than 40 international trips), Todd transferred his skills to the for-profit sector. In 2004, he accepted the position of Vice President of Private Equity at First Trust Portfolios where he accrued accredited investors (high-net-worth individuals and families) and managed the firm's relationship with those private clients. During those years, Todd also initiated, co-placed, and co-funded a variety of highly successful, multi-million dollar, private placement equity offerings. These investment opportunities had a widely diversified scope (raw land development, blueberries, medical office towers, and others). In 2007, having developed significant relationships with a number of respected professional athletes, he formed Breakaway Sports Management, LLC and partnered with highly esteemed Moye Sports Associates in representing multiple world champion athletes. Over the years, Todd has secured sponsorships for a substantial list of professional athletes in numerous sports (PGA Tour, MLB, NBA, NASCAR, Olympic). Today, Todd brings his experience and expertise to 4U Management.
Todd recieved both his BA and M. Divinity from The Master's College, outside of Los Angeles, Ca. Todd and his wife, Tanya, have four children.

TWO-TIME U.S. OPEN GOLF CHAMPION LEE JANZEN AND FEED THE CHILDREN HELP ORLANDO FAMILIES IN NEED, Feed The Children Founder Larry Jones Will Be In Attendance
Orlando, Fla. (Mar. 18, 2009) International hunger relief organization Feed The Children is pleased to announce two-time U.S. Open Golf Champion Lee Janzen and Feed The Children founder Larry Jones will be in attendance at the distribution at First Baptist Church of Orlando, 3000 South John Young Parkway on Monday, Mar. 23 at 4 p.m. The Feed The Children semi tractor-trailer filled with food and personal care items will arrive at 3 p.m.
Feed The Children, working with local partner agency First Baptist Church of Orlando, will provide a box of food and personal care items to recipients. The boxes are designed to help supplement a family for up to one week.
“We are incredibly thankful that Lee Janzen has partnered with Feed The Children for this food distribution in Orlando,” said Larry Jones, founder and president of Feed The Children. “Lee has a servant’s heart for struggling families during this difficult economic time and he is committed to reaching out to those in need during his travels on the PGA TOUR.”
Janzen has won eight times on the PGA Tour, most notably the 1993 and 1998 U.S. Open. In 1993, Janzen defeated Payne Stewart at the Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey, en route to tying the 72-hole U.S. Open scoring record of 8-under par.

Carmichael Finishes 8th in California
Motocross Champ Carmichael Excels On Four Wheels
You might say Ricky Carmichael (#4 Monster Energy Drink Chevrolet) is a fast learner. But with a record 15 American Motorcycle Association motocross championships in hand — plus a solid season of four-wheeled competition in the NASCAR Camping World Series East — it's not surprising that Carmichael logged a top-10 finish in just his second truck race.
Carmichael, who qualified third for the San Bernardino County 200, finished eighth. "It was an awesome run; he did a great job all weekend, qualifying and race," said his veteran crew chief, Billy Wilburn, who oversees the Kevin Harvick Inc. team. "To say that it was expected would be wrong.
"I would say before the year's out, you'll have yourself a Raybestos Rookie (race) winner." Carmichael, whose next race is April 25 at Kansas Speedway, was pleased with his performance but agreed there's plenty of learning yet to be done. "I'm super-pumped and I learned a lot," he said. "I wish we could have done better for (KHI) but personally, I'm happy." Carmichael has a pair of aces in the hole — Harvick and teammate Ron Hornaday Jr. (#33 Camping World Chevrolet). He followed three-time series champion Hornaday into the top five at one point after Harvick radioed Carmichael to pick up the pace.
"I just feel comfortable around Ron," Carmichael said. "I didn't even know I was fifth so that was pretty neat. But I knew if I was up there (with him) I was going to be able to learn a lot."
