Stern Pinball has announced the 2023 roster for its University of Illinois NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) programme.

Representatives from the Fighting Illini football team serve as brand ambassadors as part of Stern’s effort to support student-athletes at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
The players on the 2023 NIL roster are Luke Altmyer, Malik Elzy, Casey Washington, Josh McCray, Reggie Love III, Kenenna Odeluga, Hank Beatty and Shawn Miller.
These players and their teammates will be playing the latest Stern pinball games, Venom and Foo Fighters, and competing against one another to boast their pinball prowess on social media.
All players will be registered on Stern’s Insider Connected platform, where they can track progress, earn new game-specific achievements and engage with the wider player community.
“It is an honour to support these talented players and introduce them to the game of pinball that is so near and dear to my heart,” said Zach Sharpe, director of marketing at Stern Pinball, two-time pinball world champion, and Illinois alumnus.
