What participants are saying about the Sport Administrator Leadership Institute...

    "This was a 10/10. I gained so much valuable knowledge and understanding to being a better sport administrator. It was a home run addition to the overall Convention and I will sing the praises of this to all who inquire. Made great connections throughout the NACDA community in this seminar and understanding that most of us are in similar boats when it comes to being a sport administrator."
    --  Alissa Aragon, Associate AD for Student Success/SWA, Stanislaus State University    

    "Great addition to NACDA with pertinent insight into the role of Sport Administrator. Appreciate the inclusion of round table discussions as part of the sessions to encourage gaining insight from peers."
