OK so we are West Coast guys here at Pro Trainer Soccer. It was 70 degrees when we left for St Louis for this years NSCAA convention. St Louis was locked in a nice little cold snap and when we got to town it was around ZERO. Yikes. We froze a bit during the load in and load out for the show, but once the soccer coaches were inside the convention hall there was nothing chilly going on.Great clinics, seminars, and vendor show are always a hall mark of this convention and this year in St Louis was no different.

This years’s NSCAA convention was a great show with thousands of soccer coaches and hundreds of vendors showing off their wonderful soccer products. We spent three days having great talks with other soccer vendors, coaches, and customers (both new and current owners of our Pro Trainer soccer ball machine). We look forward to seeing them again at next years show or at other events around the country in the ocming year.

Congrats to the players taken in both the MLS Super Draft and WPS Draft, both held at this years show. We look forward to seeing these new stars of pro soccer out on the pitch this season.Lots of good buzz around the show surrounding the new women’s league. We sure hope it hits the ground running and is a big success.

The Pro Trainer soccer ball machine will be exhibited at the 2009 NSCAA convention in St Louis in January. We have signed on to be part of this exciting show that features coaches from all over the country who participate in the NSCAA and its coaching programs.

About the NSCAA Convention:

When it comes to soccer events in the United States, few can parallel the National Soccer Coaches Association of America’s Convention. No other event matches the fun, excitement and learning opportunities this annual gathering offers to soccer coaches at all levels of the game.

Whether it’s learning the basics of coaching goalkeepers or a high-level discussion of systems of play, every coach who attends will find something new to add to their soccer repertoire. And the coaching instruction is just the beginning – the four-day program is filled with a myriad of opportunities to mix and mingle with some of the most prominent names on the soccer landscape.
