Message from the Executive Director

Dear SAY Soccer leadership,

In this edition of SAYNEWS you will find detailed information about SAY Soccer’s Annual General Meeting (AGM). This meeting is traditionally attended by local SAY Soccer board members; however, we would like to stress that the event is open to all SAY Soccer members.

The two-day meeting more closely resembles a family reunion than a meeting. The atmosphere is casual, fun, educational and family friendly. It is a great time to meet with SAY Staff, National Board, SAY Partners and other soccer leaders from around the country. The SAY AGM is also the time to discuss the overall health and direction of the organization and elect open National Board Positions.

If you would like to learn more about this special event, we are here to answer any questions that you may have. We hope that you consider joining us this summer!

Doug Wood
