Duluth, GA - The Atlanta Gladiators, proud ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Nashville Predators and the American Hockey League’s Milwaukee Admirals, announced on Tuesday that the team has hired Chase Malley and Marshall Gada to the front office as Account Executives. 

Chase Malley remains with the Gladiators organization and takes on a full-time role as an Account Executive after spending the 2025-26 season with the team as a Ticket Sales Intern. 

The native of Marietta, GA, went to Hillgrove High School, and later the University of Georgia, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Sport Management in 2024. While at UGA, Chase was on the Rowing Team and was a ‘Facility Operations Manager’ at the Ramsey Student Recreation Center. His first experience in the sports industry was as a merchandise intern with the University of Georgia’s Men’s Ice Hockey Team, and prior to his internship with the Gladiators, he was also a ‘Traveling Operations Intern’ with the American Junior Golf Association.

“I am incredibly excited to continue working with the Atlanta Gladiators in a new role and looking forward to contributing to the continued success of the organization,” said Malley. “Go Glads!”

 “I’m incredibly blessed to be a part of such a vibrant and exciting organization like the Gladiators,” said Gada. “This place already feels like home, and I can’t wait to meet the rest of Glads nation - lets rock baby!”

"I am pleased to welcome Chase and Marshall to our front office," said Gladiators President, Jared Youngman. “Chase’s hard work and dedication as a ticket sales intern proved that he was worthy of a promotion to a full-time role, and Marshall stood out to us through SEVT and an established program at South Carolina as someone that will make a positive and immediate impact on our organization moving forward,” he said.
