As a Director of Coms, Mktg & Business Development (Founder) I have thought, business planned, worked and launched with an associate our Futsal venue. Opened in June 09, called the SoccerStar. Playing turf is brand new and made in the USA. A comfort layer was added below the turf for a better playing experience. We organised showrooms, product launches, incentive groups, parties, birthdays, Soccer trainings and courses. After all was set and running, I went looking for new challenges.
