Every weekend a soccer tournament (or several) is scheduled is special, but Memorial Day weekend soccer is nearest to our heart at TourneyCentral. While we started writing the software for this whole tournament revolution in the Spring of 1999, our first live run was the adidas Warrior Soccer Classic in 2000. It was scary, it was chaotic and it was a blast!
We have learned a lot of stuff along the way about soccer tournaments after that first Memorial Day weekend soccer tournament and lots of technology has changed since, but the dedication, drive and passion of the people behind the soccer events that appear so effortlessly to pull together has not. We are grateful to each and every tournament director and the vast volunteer staff who has included us in their event.
A special thank you to Carol Maas of the adidas Warrior Soccer Classic in Dayton, Ohio for seeing the potential in moving from paper onto the very unfamiliar web. Her trust in our ability to pull that off is beyond words.
Here’s wishing everyone a safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend. Good luck to all the teams competing in the three soccer tournaments we are hosting in 2016; the adidas Warrior Soccer Classic, the Pacesetter Soccer Invitational and the Westlake Invitational.
Please support them and their sponsors for a successful tournament.
