Business of Sports
What a great program this morning at the OBJ Business of Sports breakfast, co-hosted by the sports commission. The panelists, Steve Hogan (FCS), Keith Tribble (UCF), Steve Liverani (Fox Sports/Sun Sports), Alex Martins (Orlando Magic) and Ken Potrock (ESPN/Disney Sports) were fantastic! First, these 5 are about as big as it gets in the national sports scene. Second, they shared great insight about "their world" and helped people better realize the impact their respective organizations have in our community. Finally, they are just good guys! If you missed it, be sure to make plans to attend next year. Not sure of the panel yet but think of the possibilities: LPGA, Golf Channel, Arnold Palmer Invite, EA Sports, Daytona International Speedway, Sunshine State Conference, USTA Florida, Rollins College, Stetson University...and more!

The Sports Club will help the sports commission do our job even better...added resources will keep us more competitive with bids and proposals to bring "heads in beds" to Central Florida. Also, the Sports Club will give some added exposure and attendees to the sports partners who support the Club. They are the ones that make Central Florida a great place to live, work and play...and watch ...
