Sporting News
The following March, ACBJ contributed "Sporting News" into a joint venture with the U.S. assets of sports data company Perform Group, known as Perform Sporting News Limited and doing business as Sporting News Media. Perform owned 65% of Sporting News Media. "Sporting News" would join Perform Group's other domestic properties, such as its video syndication unit ePlayer and its soccer website Goal.com. The deal excluded the magazine's "Sporting News Yearbooks" unit and "NASCAR Illustrated". Almost immediately after the venture was established, "Sporting News" laid off 13 staff writers. Perform Group acquired the remainder of Sporting News Media in 2015.
