Brogan, Tom

Candidate for: Director of Youth Travel Soccer

Campaign Statement:

As a parent and active member of WWPSA for the past 6 years, I have supported the club in several different volunteer roles. As a former athlete who played Division I in college, I continue to educate myself on the game of soccer and the many changes youth soccer implements each year. I value the experiences I had as a youth player that built the foundation for my success which is why my priority is putting our members first. I identify the needs of the travel program with an open mind and make educated decisions that help support the growth of the players as well as the program.

Under my current supervision with the travel program, WWPSA has made progress on several initiatives to help position the club for the future. For the 2018 season, we have provided our training staff with additional soccer education which is reflective in our training sessions. We also held our first parent engagement night which was presented by Auke Wiersma, a US Soccer representative to help provide additional information and answer parent questions. We have implemented a new partnership with Global Premier Soccer to provide our WWPSA members with a complete player pathway which starts with our recreation program through our premier travel teams.

If re-elected, the travel program will continue to search for ways to improve the WWPSA experience and promote effective communication, transparency and member engagement.
