youth sports conference

“The Youth Sports Congress is a great event to network and get up-to-date on the trends and issues in youth sports. We got a lot of new ideas this year and it’s good to see what other organizations are doing to improve their sports. Also, the people you meet at Congress are a great resource when you have a question. It’s easy to just send a quick email since you know them now and it’s not as awkward to ask for information or a favor.”

Miste Adams, Recreation Superintendent,National Trail Parks and Recreation District, Springfield, OH
“From my first experience I realized that attending Congress is something that is instrumental in my profession and every year I learn something new. The trends change and you get to meet more people in the industry that really helps me grow personally and professionally.”

Brent Mosbacher, Recreation Coordinator, City of Novato, Novato, CA
“Being military, attending the NAYS Youth Sports Congress is a nice way to get involved with the outside non-military youth sports organizations. To see what they are doing in their programs is a wonderful experience.”

Angie Gadomski, Youth Sports and Fitness Director, Ellsworth Air Force Base, Piedmont, SD
“I did not know so many other people loved kids like we did and it’s great to see and meet a bunch of individuals who love youth sports like we do.”

Roderick Mitchell, Coach, Brown Missionary Baptist Church, Southaven, MS
“I have never been to a conference that gives as much bang for your buck as NAYS Youth Sports Congress!”

Becky Shaddle, Athletic Director, Mercer Island Boys & Girls Club, Mercer Island, WA
