Charter of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors



 Exhibit 10.14 
 SPORTS PROPERTIES ACQUISITION CORP. 
 CHARTER OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE 
 OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS 
 The board
of directors (the “Board”) of Sports Properties Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) hereby establishes the Audit Committee of the Board with the following purpose, authority, powers, duties and responsibilities.

 Purpose 
 The purpose of the Audit
Committee is to represent and assist the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company in its general oversight of the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes, audits of the financial statements, and internal
control and audit functions. Management is responsible for (1) the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements; (2) accounting and financial reporting principles; and (3) the Company’s
internal controls and procedures designed to promote compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. The Company’s independent auditing firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the consolidated
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States (“GAAP”). 
 The Audit
Committee members are not professional accountants or auditors and their functions are not intended to duplicate or to certify the activities of management and the independent auditor, nor can the Audit Committee certify that the independent auditor
is “independent” under applicable rules. The Audit Committee serves a board level oversight role where it oversees the relationship with the independent auditor, as set forth in this charter, receives information and provides advice,
counsel and general direction, as it deems appropriate, to management and the auditors, taking into account the information it receives, discussions with the auditor, and the experience of the Audit Committee’s members in business, financial
and accounting matters. 
 Membership and Structure 
 The Audit Committee is initially comprised of at least three directors determined by the Board to meet the director and audit committee member independence requirements and financial literacy requirements of the
American Stock Exchange, Inc. (“Amex”). At least one member of the Audit Committee must be financially sophisticated, as determined by the Board, and no Audit Committee member may have participated in the preparation of the
financial statements of the Company or any of the Company’s current subsidiaries at any time during the past three years, each as required by American Stock Exchange listing standards. Appointment to the Audit Committee and the designation of
any Audit Committee members as “audit committee financial experts” shall be made on an annual basis by the full Board. 
 Meetings
of the Audit Committee shall be held at such times and places as the Audit Committee shall determine, including by written consent. When necessary, the Audit Committee shall meet in executive session outside of the presence of any senior officer of
the Company. The Chair of the Audit Committee shall report on activities of the Audit Committee to the full Board. In fulfilling its responsibilities the Audit Committee shall have authority to delegate its authority to subcommittees, in each case
to the extent permitted by applicable law.
