Boca's TOPSoccer Program Could Become a National Model
Continued from Page One
The program has turned to its coaches and other volunteers to come up with video and editorial expertise. The group plans to produce a manual of about 100 pages and several short videos.
The groups will work under the direction of Earl Starkoff, the past president of SABR [3], through mid-April to complete the project. Starkoff, a community activist, has both marketing and publications experience.
"With Earl's background, that has made all the difference," said Susan Vogelgesang, a TOPSoccer administrator and the newest member of the Greater Boca Raton Beach and Park District. "It's a big project, but if anyone can do it, SABR can. This is really a neat situation."
The game plan is to include the essentials of setting up a TOPSoccer program, fundraising for new clubs, the special roles of the volunteer coaches and buddies, and game-day practices. Much of the video footage will be shot during SABR's TOPSoccer season, which begins Jan. 15.
