Reflections on the NSCAA 2007 Convention

On the way home from this years’ NSCAA convention held in Indianapolis I am left with good feelings about knowledge learned, friends revisited, new contacts made and good business done. It was a good show and I managed to hit the road before the snow and cold settled into the mid west. Being from California I am not ready for being stuck in bad weather. Sorry it is a West Coast thing.

I would like to give a shout out to the great guys at Soccer Village who I got to spend time getting great new ideas for products we can feature at TK Sports. Todd Ragsdale, Tim Bruner, Shane Bengford all do some great work at Soccer Village and we are proud to be associated with their sales force.

I ran into FIFA referee and one of the USA’s best referees of all time Brian Hall at the show. Brian was at the show to support one of his players who has achieved All America status. Brian in addition to being a World Cup referee is also a youth soccer coach in the Northern California region. It was good to see him. Look for him on TV covering some big game on the world’s stage next summer.

Tom Sutton and I had a wonderful show and to our surprise a really great chance encounter happened where we had our heads turned around. We had dinner with a wonderful businessman from Seattle and we can’t wait to share the results of that meeting with our customers. Stay tuned in coming months for some cool news.

Meanwhile it is off to edit our video shot at the show and get it posted soon…….
