REACH THE FASTEST GROWING SPORTS MARKET IN SOUTHWEST MISSOURI!
The Magazine is part of the expanding reach and market represented by the SGFsoccer.com website. Entering the third year of coverage of High School, College and Club Soccer in the region, June 2007 saw 80% growth in visitors over the previous year. The website traffic exceeded 40,000 unique visitors in the 12 months leading up to that period.
The inaugural issue features Jack Jewsbury, professional soccer player for the KC Wizards of Major League Soccer and a Kickapoo grad.
In addition, an exclusive interview with Mr. Harry Cooper will document the history of the development of the soccer complex that bears his name.
Previews of the 30 High School programs and 9 college programs in the region will ensure that this magazine will become a regular part of the communities travel kit and gain additional exposure for you over many months to come.
Scheduled for publication twice a year, the Spring 2008 issue will feature Ann Cook on the cover. Ann is a Glendale graduate who has represented the US National team, played in the Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA) and is now part of the Penn State soccer staff.
