Soccer Administrators Day is a holiday in which youth sport communities are encouraged pay homage to the hard work of the club administrator and all they do to progress youth soccer in America. Soccer Administrators Day originated in Atlanta, Georgia, United States but is celebrated by several other cities nationwide. History On May 9, 2007, the one year anniversary of the Nation’s largest youth soccer organization newsletter, Blue Sombrero decided to honor their devoted and committed youth soccer administrators. The marketing director Jon “The Don Juan” Rydarowski proposed the idea in a company meeting in order celebrate the anniversary of the weekly newsletter and blog. What started as a celebration of The Administrator's growth and success over the previous year, evolved into an observance of the under-appreciated youth Soccer Administrators. They are the lifeblood of the youth soccer organization. The Administrator urged the “Presidents, Executive Directors and Board Members,to take this opportunity to do something nice for their staff. Take your registrar to lunch, offer your treasurer a flower, or simply give your Secretary a high five.” These hardworking undervalued employees work, often volunteers, work hard to progress the impact that youth soccer has on our children and community every day. The holiday also includes a jointBlue Sombrero and The Administratorrun contest that allows the readership to submit compelling ideas, comments and suggestions to the staff about who they think is the best Administrator in the country. Historicall the best submission has won prizes, giveaways and club credits, which can prove invaluable. Recent developments in the holiday have included an “Administrator of the Year Award". Observances Soccer Administrators Day is observed across the United States. Blue Sombrero’s customer base reaches beyond 40 states, including youth soccer leagues and teams, multi-sport organizations and state associations on all coasts of the country. Prizes The first celebrated Soccer Administrators Day offered a $50.00 American Express Gift Card, an authentic Blue Sombrero, as well as a club spotlight in an upcoming issue of The Administrator. The second annual Soccer Administrators Day gave the winner a $100.00 AMEX gift card, a Blue Sombrero Prize pack and a publication spotlight and “much more”. Each years prizes are decided during a company meeting prior to the release of the announcement in The Administrator. Links See Also *Soccer *Soccer Administrator See Also
