PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
(a) Business Development - Pre-Reorganization. Sporting Magic, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Sporting Magic" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Delaware on January 2, 1987. At the time, we were incorporated
as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Electro-Kinetic Systems Inc. ("EKSI") and under
the name "EKS RN CON INC." Our name was changed to EKS Radtech, Inc. on March
11, 1987 and again changed to DMA-Radtech, Inc. ("DMAR") on September 18, 1990.
From our inception through March 1995, we operated as a producer and distributor
of radon testing devices. In March 1995, following the bankruptcy of our major
distributor, we ceased operations and sold our radon testing facility.
(b) Reorganization. During 1998, pursuant to a Plan of Merger and Reorganization
Agreement, EKSI and DMAR completed a reorganization and merger with Advanced
Knowledge, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation ("AKIP") (the
"Reorganization Agreement"). In accordance with the Reorganization Agreement on
August 5, 1998, DMAR increased the number of its authorized shares of common
stock to 25,000,000 and split its outstanding shares 300:1. DMAR also amended
its Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate the liability of its directors to
the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and to require that the company
indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent
permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware Corporation Law. On August 26, 1998,
AKIP was merged into DMAR, with DMAR being the surviving corporation, and DMAR
issued 2,700,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the
outstanding shares of AKIP (the "Reorganization"). The transaction was accounted
for using the "reverse purchase" method of accounting. Concurrent with the
closing of the Reorganization, DMAR's stockholders voted to change the name of
the combined corporation to Advanced Knowledge, Inc. ("Advanced Knowledge"). The
assets as of June 30, 1998 that AKIP contributed to the combined corporation
included: workforce training video inventory of $29,000, cash of $2,000 and
other assets of $6,000, for a total of approximately $37,000. AKIP contributed
liabilities to the combined corporation of $35,000. These liabilities
represented loans payable to Advanced Knowledge's president and principal
stockholder. In addition, pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, AKIP paid
$50,000 to EKSI for certain proprietary know-how and work product and to cover
certain administrative and professional fees associated with the transaction,
and EKSI contributed to capital all liabilities of DMAR, totaling $311,000.
(c) Business Prior to Acquisition of Soccer Magic, Inc. Prior to our acquisition
of Soccer Magic, Inc., an Ontario, Canada corporation ("Soccer Magic") (which
acquisition was rescinded on October 6, 2000, see "Rescission of Acquisition
Agreement with Soccer Magic" below), the core business of Advanced Knowledge was
the development, production and distribution of creatively unique management and
general workforce training videos for use by corporations throughout the world.
In 1998 Advanced Knowledge commenced production and completion of three training
videos. They are: "Twelve Angry Men: Teams That Don't Quit"; "The Cuban Missile
Crisis: A Case Study in Decision Making and Its Consequences" and, "It's A
Wonderful Life: Leading Through Service." Each incorporated elements of the
original productions or, as in the Cuban missile, original government audio and
still photos. In addition, we distributed
4
<PAGE>
training videos produced by independent producers.
(d) Acquisition of Soccer Magic. In December, 1999, we, under our then name
Advanced Knowledge, entered into an Acquisition Agreement to acquire Soccer
Magic (the "Acquisition Agreement"). Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, we
agreed to acquire 100% of the outstanding common shares of Soccer Magic by
issuing 10,000,000 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of Soccer
Magic. As provided in the Acquisition Agreement, on March 20, 2000, Soccer
Magic's management assumed the management duties and responsibilities of
Advanced Knowledge and the officers and directors of Advanced Knowledge
resigned.
(e) Rescission of Acquisition Agreement with Soccer Magic. The Acquisition
Agreement required that Soccer Magic raise $2.7 million to be used for working
capital through the sale of common stock on or before June 30, 2000. Soccer
Magic was unable to raise the $2.7 million by June 30, 2000. Soccer Magic then
asked for a waiver of the June 30, 2000 deadline through September 29, 2000,
which was granted. Soccer Magic was unable to raise the $2.7 million by
September 29, 2000 and sought another waiver to October 6, 2000. This waiver was
also given. However, Soccer Magic was unable to raise the $2.7 million and at
noon on October 6, 2000, the Acquisition Agreement was rescinded. The
representative for our shareholders gave notice of the rescission to Soccer
Magic. Upon the delivery of that notice, our Board of Directors and officers
reverted back to the pre-acquisition state as provided by the Acquisition
Agreement. A complete and further description of the rescission may be found in
our Form 8-K filed with the Commission on October 12, 2000, which is
incorporated herein by this reference and the Amended Form 8-K filed with the
Commission on October 19, 2000 which is incorporated herein by this reference.
Concurrent with the execution of the Acquisition Agreement, our corporate
training video business was sold to Becor Communications, Inc. ("Becor").
Although the rescission of the Acquisition Agreement canceled the 10,000,000
shares and placed Soccer Magic and us in the positions we were in prior to the
acquisition, the rescission did not effect the sale of our corporate training
video business to Becor.
(f) Post Rescission Business. As a result of the acquisition and the subsequent
rescission of the acquisition, we are without any material assets. Consequently,
we are now a "shell" company with minimal operations. Our business plan is to
attempt to identify and complete an acquisition, merger or other transaction
that will enhance shareholder value.
We are filing this annual report to maintain our status as a reporting company
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, because we believe that reporting
company status may enhance desirability of this company as a potential acquirer
or potential merger candidate. We presently have no employees. Our President and
majority shareholder, Buddy Young, provides services under a consulting
agreement with the Company. We regularly utilize the services of independent
consultants for our legal and accounting needs.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
Our corporate office is located at 17337 Ventura Boulevard, Suite 224, Encino,
CA 91316. Under the terms of a consulting agreement with the Company's President
and Chief Executive Officer, Buddy Young, the office space is currently provided
at no additional cost to the Company. The Company anticipates that this space
will be adequate for its operations through February, 2001, at which time the
lease expires. Buddy Young is currently engaged in the process of negotiating an
extension of that lease. We plan continue to make use of office space provided
by Mr. Young for so long as he permits or until such time as we generate funds
sufficient to pay rent.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS NONE
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
In May, 2000, we requested the written consent of our stockholders, without
holding a meeting, to change the name of the corporation from "Advanced
Knowledge, Inc." to "Sporting Magic, Inc." The change was approved on June 1,
2000 and became effective on June 12, 2000. Of the issued and outstanding shares
of common stock entitled to vote, 84% voted in favor of the name change.
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Market Information - Until August 20, 1999, there was no public trading market
for our stock. On that day our common stock was cleared for trading on the OTC
Bulletin Board system under the symbol AVKN. Following our name change in June,
2000, the symbol was changed to SPGM. Since August 20, 1999, there has been a
very limited market for the trading of our common stock. The table below sets
forth the high and low bid prices of our common stock for each quarter shown, as
provided by the Nasdaq Trading and Market Services Research Unit. Quotations
reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and
may not represent actual transactions.

August 31, 2000 was 901.
Dividends - Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as
the Board of Directors may from time to time declare out of funds legally
available for the payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid on our
common stock, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock
in the foreseeable future.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities - We sold 1,000,000 shares of common
stock in December 1998 and January 1999 to five (5) accredited investors in
reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Rule 504 11 of
Regulation D, promulgated under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. The aggregate purchase price for these shares was $100,000.
On March 20, 2000, pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement dated as of December
14, 1999, the Company purchased all of the outstanding shares of Soccer Magic
Inc.("Soccer Magic") through an exchange of 0.84244082 of its shares for each
share of Soccer Magic. The Company issued a total of 10,000,000 shares of its
common stock to the shareholders of Soccer Magic in the transaction. On October
6, 2000, pursuant to its own terms, the Acquisition Agreement was rescinded and
the 10,000,000 shares issued to Soccer Magic's shareholders were cancelled.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
PLAN OF OPERATION
As a "shell" company, we currently have no revenues from operations. Our
business plan is to identify and complete an acquisition, merger or other
transaction that will enhance shareholder value. Our President and Chairman is
investigating potential business opportunities, as authorized by the Board of
Directors. The Board has placed no limitations on the type of business or
industry to consider. Currently, we have no plans, agreements, arrangements or
understandings, written or oral, with respect to any acquisition, merger or
similar transaction. No assurances can be given as to our ability to identify
and complete a transaction by any given date or as to the nature of the business
or profitability of the company if a transaction is completed. A proposed
transaction could be subject to significant regulatory, business, financing and
other contingencies and might require shareholder and other approvals. See Part
I, Item 1, "Description of Business."
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a limited discussion of the results of operations for the three
months ended August 31, 2000, and of results of operations for the fiscal year
ended August 31, 2000, compared to those for the fiscal year ended August 31,
1999. A comparison of the results of operations for the 2000 fiscal year are not
directly comparable to results for the prior year period, because of the
acquisition of Soccer Magic in March, 2000, the sale of substantially all of the
Company's net operating assets effective March 23, 2000, and the subsequent
rescission of the Acquisition Agreement with Soccer Magic on October 6, 2000.
The limited results of operations for the three months ended August 31, 2000 are
described below, but no comparison has been made of the results of operations
for that period to those for the prior year period because such a comparison
would not be meaningful under the circumstances.
THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2000
During the quarter ended August 31, 2000, our operations were dormant, except
for the issuance of 800,000 shares of the Company's common stock in exchange for
consulting services valued at $370,000. We did not engage in any income or
revenue producing activity. During the quarter, we continued our search for
possible business acquisitions and other business opportunities. During the
quarter, we did not identify any likely candidates for such a transaction.
THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2000 COMPARED TO AUGUST 31, 1999
On March 23, 2000, the Company sold all of the assets and liabilities related to
its workforce training video business to Becor Communications, Inc. ("Becor").
Consequently, for the quarter ended August 31, 2000, we were effectively dormant
and did not engage in any ongoing business activities. Without the workforce
training video business or any other business during the quarter, any comparison
between the two quarters would be futile and meaningless. Accordingly, no such
comparison is being made.
8
<PAGE>
FISCAL 2000 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1999
CONTINUING OPERATIONS.
As a result of the March 23, 2000, sale of our workforce training video business
to Becor, we did not have any material assets or business, and commenced
operating as a shell corporation. Consequently, we only had business operations
for the first six months of fiscal 2000. By comparison, we were in operation for
the entire 1999 fiscal year. Accordingly, a comparison would not disclose any
meaningful or useful information. Therefore, no comparison is being made.
During fiscal 2000, we incurred general and administrative expenses, including
consulting and professional fees of $664,868. These expenses were mainly
comprised of consultant fees paid through the issuance of 2,800,000 shares of
the Company's common stock to unrelated third parties for assistance in
identifying business opportunities. Income for the same period totaled $153,658,
which is down from the $174,269 of revenues generated in 1999. As of August 31,
200, we have no assets, compared to $89,921 in assets on August 31, 1999 and our
overall loss from operations increased from ($103,531) to ($710,401), primarily
due to the consulting fees identified above. The basic loss per share for 2000
is ($0.13) compared to ($0.03) per share in 1999.
Our current plan of operation is to identify and complete an acquisition, merger
or other transaction that will enhance shareholder value.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Advanced Knowledge -
As indicated above, on March 23, 2000, following the Soccer Magic acquisition,
we sold all of our assets and liabilities related to its workforce training
video business to Becor.
Becor is a corporation controlled by Buddy Young, who is a significant
shareholder and, at the time of the sale, was a director and executive officer
of the Company. The sale was made pursuant to an Asset Sale Agreement dated as
of March 16, 2000, which was unanimously approved by the disinterested directors
of the Company. The assets transferred included all rights to the "Advanced
Knowledge" name; the advancedknowledge.com web site; four workforce training
videos; and all cash, accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, personal
property, and rights under production and distribution agreements held by the
Company as of March 23, 2000. In exchange for the assets, Becor assumed, and
both Becor and Mr. Young agreed to indemnify the Company with respect to, all of
the liabilities incurred or accrued by the Company prior to March 23, 2000.
According to the unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of March 23, 2000,
the Company had total assets of approximately$107,000 and total liabilities of
$301,000 at that date. The total liabilities as of such date included
approximately $206,000 of principal and interest owed to Mr. Young under a
secured promissory note.
9
<PAGE>
During fiscal 1999, our business consisted entirely of the production, sale,
distribution and marketing of workforce training videos. Revenues for fiscal
1999 totaled approximately $174,000, an increase of $167,000 over fiscal 1998.
The increase was a result of our marketing efforts for the video "Twelve Angry
Men: Teams That Don't Quit" and completion of a new video, "Cuban Missile
Crisis: A Case Study in Decision Making and Its Consequences." During 1999, we
also realized revenues from training and consulting to end users of the videos
totaling $39,000. During fiscal 1999, we financed our operations with cash flow
from sales, with borrowings from our president and principal stockholder and
from the private sale of common stock.
Soccer Magic -
During the period of March 20, 2000 through August 31, 2000 and continuing
through October 6, 2000, we operated Soccer Magic's business, which business
consisted of designing, constructing, owns and operating multi-recreational and
family oriented facilities, with soccer as their primary venue. The facilities
also served a variety of other field sports such as touch football, rugby,
lacrosse, field hockey and golf. Soccer Magic operated two such facilities
through wholly owned subsidiaries in Kingston and London, Ontario.
However, on October 6, 2000, the Acquisition Agreement was rescinded and Soccer
Magic, including all of its business operations was severed from the company.
and we discontinued operating Soccer Magic's business. Rather, since the
rescission, we commenced operating as a shell corporation without any business
operations.
From March 20, 2000 through October 6, 2000, the business, operations, assets
and liabilities of the Company consisted entirely of those of Soccer Magic.
However, since the October 6 rescission, the Company was left without any
material assets or liabilities. As a result, the Company's operations from March
20, 2000 through August 31, 2000 are not being reported as operations for the
Company. The results from the Company's limited operations (consisting of
operations from September 1, 1999 through March 23, 2000) include total revenues
of approximately $154,000 and $174,000 and a net loss of approximately
($720,000) and ($114,000) for the years ended August 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.
CONTINUED OPERATIONS
Without any operating business or material assets, we anticipate that the
Company will continue to operate as a shell corporation until such time as
management identifies and completes an acquisition of, or merger with an
operating company. No assurances can be given as to our ability to identify and
complete a transaction by any given date or as to the nature of the business or
profitability of the company if a transaction is completed. A proposed
transaction could be subject to significant regulatory, business, financing and
other contingencies and might require shareholder and other approvals. See Part
I, Item 1, "Description of Business."
We anticipate that the Company will incur expenses of approximately $2,000 per
month while operating as a shell corporation.
10
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY
At August 31, 2000, the Company had no working capital. It is currently solely
dependent on its president and principal shareholder Buddy Young, to finance its
limited operations. In accordance with a promissory note between the Company and
Mr. Young, he has agreed to loan us up to $2,000 per month through August 31,
2001. Under the terms of the note, funds advanced to us by Mr. Young will accrue
interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. The note is due and
payable on September 30, 2001. Additional working capital may be sought through
additional debt or equity private placements, additional notes payable to banks
or related parties (officers, directors or stockholders), or from other
available funding sources at market rates of interest, or a combination of
these. The ability to raise necessary financing will depend on many factors,
including the nature and prospects of any business to be acquired and the
economic and market conditions prevailing at the time financing is sought. No
assurances can be given that any necessary financing can be obtained on terms
favorable to the Company, or at all.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors of
Sporting Magic, Inc. (formerly
Advanced Knowledge, Inc.):
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Sporting Magic, Inc.
(formerly Advanced Knowledge, Inc.) (the "Company") as of August 31, 2000 and
1999 and the related statements of operations, shareholders' deficit and cash
flows for the two years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Company at August 31, 2000 and 1999, and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered significant losses from
operations that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also
described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SPORTING MAGIC, INC.
(FORMERLY ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE, INC.)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
GENERAL INFORMATION - At a special meeting held on June 30, 1998, the
shareholders of DMA-Radtech, Inc. ("DMA"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Electro-Kinetic Systems, Inc. ("EKSI"), approved a plan of merger and
reorganization, as set forth in an Agreement and Plan of Merger and
Reorganization dated as of June 30, 1998, with Advanced Knowledge, Inc.
("AKIP"). DMA issued 2,700,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for
all outstanding shares of Advanced Knowledge, Inc. Concurrent with the
agreement, DMA changed its name to Advanced Knowledge, Inc. (the
"Company"). DMA, a Delaware corporation, was incorporated under the laws of
the State of Delaware in January 1987.
The merger was accounted for using the "reverse purchase method of
accounting, pursuant to which AKIP was treated as the acquiring entity for
accounting purposes. The assets, liabilities and shareholders' deficit of
AKIP were recorded at their historical values. DMA had no assets or
liabilities.
DMA previously operated as a producer and distributor of radon testing
devices. In addition, DMA had maintained a testing facility for matters
related to radon. DMA ceased operations in 1995.
In March 2000, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement
("Agreement") whereby it acquired all of the outstanding common shares of
Soccer Magic, Inc., a privately-owned Ontario corporation. Concurrent with
the transaction, the Company sold all of the assets and liabilities related
to its workforce training video business to Becor Internet, Inc. ("Becor"),
a corporation controlled by Buddy Young, the majority shareholder of the
Company (prior to the transaction). The sale was for no consideration as
the excess of liabilities transferred exceeded the assets acquired by
$198,064.
The management of Soccer Magic, Inc. assumed control of the Company and
subsequently changed the name of the Company to Sporting Magic, Inc.
The Agreement required the new management of the Company to raise a minimum
of $2.7 million through a private placement of common stock by June 30,
2000. This requirement was extended to October 6, 2000. Upon failure to
have met this requirement, the Agreement was rescinded and the Board of
Directors and officers of the Company, prior to the Agreement, were
reinstated.

<PAGE>
The results of operations of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2000
represents the original business of the Company through March 2000 (when
the assets and liabilities were sold to Becor), as if the transaction with
Soccer Magic, Inc. had not taken place. The Company was effectively dormant
during the period March 2000 through August 31, 2000.
GOING CONCERN - The Company has experienced significant operating losses
since inception. The financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue to operate as a going concern which contemplates the
realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal
course of business. No adjustment has been made to the recorded amount of
assets or the recorded amount or classification of liabilities which would
be required if the Company were unable to continue its operations. As
discussed in Note 3, management has developed an operating plan which they
believe will generate sufficient cash to meet its obligations in the normal
course of business.
PERVASIVENESS OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financia statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
CONTRIBUTION OF CAPITAL - The contribution of capital totaling $198,064
represents the excess of liabilities assumed over assets acquired by Becor.
Based on the common ownership of the Company and Becor, the amount has been
accounted for as a contribution of capital.
INCOME TAXES - The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".
Income taxes are provided based on earnings reported for financial
statement purposes. Deferred taxes are provided on the temporary
differences between income for financial statement and tax purposes. At
August 31, 2000, the Company has available net operating loss carryovers of
approximately $275,000 that will expire in various periods through 2020.
The Company has established a valuation allowance for the full tax benefit
of the operating loss carryovers due to the uncertainty regarding
realization of the asset. The valuation allowance increased from
approximately $39,000 to $55,000, representing additional net operating
loss carryforwards generated in 2000.
LOSS PER SHARE - The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" that
established standards for the computation, presentation and disclosure of
earnings per share ("EPS"), replacing the presentation of Primary EPS with
a presentation of Basic EPS. It also requires dual presentation of Basic
EPS and Diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for entities with
complex capital structures. The Company did not present Diluted EPS since
the result was anti-dilutive.
20
<PAGE>
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - The Company adopted SFAS No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting
and displaying comprehensive income and its components in financial
statements; however, the adoption of this statement had no impact on the
Company's net loss on shareholders' deficit.
2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is currently utilizing the office space of Becor for no
consideration.
3. MANAGEMENT PLANS
The Company is currently a "shell" company with minimal operations.
Management is in the process of identifying a potential merger candidate or
acquisition of a product line in order to become a going concern.
4. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE (UNAUDITED)
The Company has evaluated the impact of the Year 2000 date change on its
computer systems and has concluded that this change will not have a
material impact on its systems.
5. SUBSEQUENT EVENT (UNAUDITED)
During October 2000 the Company entered into a line of credit agreement
with Buddy Young to provide borrowings up to $2,000 per month through
August 31, 2001. Borrowings accrue interest at 8.0% per year and are due in
full on September 30, 2001.

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Following the October 6, 2000 rescission of the Acquisition Agreement with
Soccer Magic, we engaged Farber & Hass, LLP ("Farber & Hass") as our new
principal accountants. That change was reported in a Form 8-K which was filed on
October 13, 2000. Farber & Hass replaced Grant Thornton, LLP ("Grant Thornton")
as our principal accountants. Grant Thornton was Soccer Magic's principal
accounting firm and had been engaged as our principal accountants on March 20,
2000 as part of the Acquisition Agreement. When Grant Thornton was appointed as
our principal accountants on March 20, 2000, it replaced Farber & Hass.
There were no disagreements with Grant Thornton on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure which, if not resolved to such firm's satisfaction, would have caused
it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection
with its report.
Prior to the filing of the October 13, 2000 report on Form 8-K, Farber & Hass
had not been consulted on any of the matters requiring disclosure under Item
304(a)(2) of Regulation S-B. Farber & Hass had been requested to review the
October 13, 2000 Form 8-K disclosure and was given the opportunity to furnish a
letter addressed to the Commission as required by Regulation S-B. Farber & Hass
informed us that was not going to provide such a letter.
Simultaneously, we provided Grant Thornton with a copy of the October 13, 2000
report on Form 8-K and requested that they furnish us with a letter addressed to
the Commission stating whether they agree with this disclosure and, if not,
stating the respects in which they do not agree. Grant Thornton informed us
verbally that it agreed with the disclosure. Subsequently, Grant Thornton
provided us with a letter to the Commission and we filed an Amended Report on
Form 8-K which was filed on October 19, 2000.
During the period of March 20, 2000 through October 6, 2000 (the "Interim
Period"), Grant Thornton neither revised any of our financial statements for the
past two years nor did Grant Thornton modify any of the reports as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. Also during the Interim
Period, Grant Thornton did not issue any audited reports.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and
executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a
registered class of our equity securities (referred to as "reporting persons"),
to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership
and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other Sporting Magic
equity securities. Reporting persons are required by Commission regulations to
furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To our knowledge,
based solely on a review of the copies of reports and amendments thereto on
Forms 3, 4 and 5 furnished to us by reporting persons during, and with respect
to, our fiscal year ended October 31, 2000, and on a review of written
representations from reporting persons that no other reports were required to be
filed for that fiscal year, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to
our directors, executive officers and greater than ten percent beneficial owners
during such period were satisfied in a timely manner. However, as a result of
the rescission of the Acquisition Agreement (discussed above), we reverted to
our original fiscal year end of August 31, 2000. Neither Buddy Young, Stephen
Albright nor Dennis Spiegelman had filed a Form 5 in accordance with the August
31 year end. It was not until October 6, 2000, the date of rescission, that they
once again became officers and directors of Sporting Magic. Further, it was not
until October 19, 2000, that we filed a Form 8-K changing our fiscal year end
back to August 31. All Form 5's for Messrs. Young, Albright and Spiegelman were
filed on November 3, 2000.
ITEM 10. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
As a result of our current limited available cash, no officer or director
received compensation during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2000. Sporting
Magic intends to pay salaries when cash flow permits. No officer of director
received stock options or other non-cash compensation during the fiscal year
ended August 31, 2000. Sporting Magic currently has no employment agreement with
any officer of the company.
ITEM 11. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information concerning the beneficial
ownership of the Company's outstanding classes of as of November 30, 2000, by
each person known by the Company to own beneficially more than 5% of each class,
by each of the Company's Directors and Named Executive Officers (as defined in
Part I, Item 6) and by all Directors and Executive Officers of the Company as a
group. Unless otherwise indicated below, to the Company's knowledge, all persons

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
On August 18, 1998, when we were known as Advanced Knowledge, we entered into a
lending arrangement with Buddy Young, pursuant to which Mr. Young could, at his
discretion, advance up to $300,000 to the company for operating expenses and
production of training videos. At the time, the Company agreed to repay such
funds, together with interest thereon accruing at a rate of 8% per annum, in
accordance with the terms of a secured promissory note (the "Note"). Obligations
under the Note are collateralized under a related Security Agreement by all of
the Company's right, title and interest in and to its video productions and
projects, regardless of their stage of production, including all related
contracts, licenses, and accounts receivable. On March 24, 1999, the term of the
Note was extended from December 31, 1999 to December 31, 2001. On that date, the
Company is to pay Mr. Young any unpaid principal and accrued interest. As of
August 31, 1999, the total amounts of principal and interest owed to Mr. Young
under the Note and Security Agreement were $127,962 and $9,682, respectively.
As indicated above, on March 20, 2000, following the Soccer Magic acquisition,
the Company sold all of the assets and liabilities related to its workforce
training video business to Becor. These are the same assets which were pledged
to Mr. Young as security for the Note. Becor is a corporation controlled by Mr.
Young, who is a significant shareholder and, at the time of the sale, was a
director and executive officer of the Company. The sale was made pursuant to an
Asset Sale Agreement dated as of March 16, 2000, which was unanimously approved
by the disinterested directors of the Company. The assets transferred included
all rights to the "Advanced Knowledge" name; the advancedknowledge.com web site;
four workforce training videos; and all cash, accounts receivable, inventory,
equipment, personal property, and rights under production and distribution
agreements held by the Company as of March 20, 2000. In exchange for the assets,
Becor assumed, and both Becor and Mr. Young agreed to indemnify the Company with
respect to, all of the liabilities incurred or accrued by the Company prior to
March 20, 2000. According to the unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of
March 20,
26
<PAGE>
2000, the Company had total assets of $117,848 and total liabilities of $300,983
at that date. The total liabilities as of such date included approximately
$204,995 of principal and interest owed to Mr. Young under the Note.
