About me...
I am a hands on team player and experienced consultant in street / urban sports. In particular I work within the field of street soccer and freestyle sports, to create projects that engage and inspire young people. This provides enormous CSR and unique sponsorship opportunities that can bring a brand to life.
Projects can act as outreach and awareness for clubs and tailor made events / programmes can take place anywhere in the world. Typically these sports are used for exclusive corporate entertainment (see some examples at our youtube video pages - http://uk.youtube.com/user/Xtreme5treet, http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3TmKqblX_7A), but I look to turn these unique artists into role models for young people. Opportunities are endless.
Please feel free to get in touch - I'm always happy to talk to anyone with similar goals and passion within sport for development.

Finally, two sports teams that get it! The Steelers face the Cowboys this Sunday in Dallas, and thanks to some clever work by each team’s digital crews, the franchises are competing in social media spheres as well. Steelers & Cowboys are evenly matched in both realms. Both teams have 7-6 records this season, and they’re [...]Email Power Rankings for MLB teams
How did E mail become the “other” white meat? While everyone is going crazy over social media, I suspect Email is getting overlooked and underutilized by many professional sports teams. With this suspicion on my brain I set out recently to do a little research using baseball teams as my subjects. The results of my [...]College sports fans blame carriers for poor connectivity at stadiums

That’s right, fans don’t blame the team [...]College fans like Twitter more than Facebook for sports
If America’s major universities want to engage avid sports fans during live events, they should pay more attention to Twitter than Facebook, and they should forget about Foursquare altogether; At least what our data seem to be saying. As part of our ongoing “Social Sports Poll,” we recently surveyed social media fans and followers of [...]© 2013 Created by Pat Coyle.

Love your ideas about street soccer and development, we should have a chat someday about what you do and what I´m looking for with Queen City FC. I lived in Spain and we played street soccer and futsal all the time and think it is something that could be vital in the United States.
Thanks!
Good to see you in the European group.
Feel free to start a discussion or join in on one.
Cheers, Gijsbregt
