CSC Continues Support with Title Sponsorship

NEW YORK (September 29, 2008) - The 2009 Soccer Operations Seminar presented by CSC announced its fifth annual event will take place January 20 - 23 in Los Angeles, CA.

"We are excited for this opportunity to increase our commitment to support soccer and provide our expertise to help the sport grow in a safe and fan-friendly manner," said Mark Glaser, CSC Vice President. CSC specializes in event services for entertainment and sporting events throughout the United States and Australia, and has been a sponsor of the seminar since 2006.

Major League Soccer provides an example of soccer's focus on security. Each year, the League conducts reviews of emergency procedures and teams engage local officials in table-top discussions to prepare for emergency scenarios. "Soccer organizers strive to provide fans, players and spectators an environment within which they can enjoy a safe and entertaining soccer experience. CSC is a perfect partner to support this mission," said Evan Dabby, MLS Senior Director of Operations.

The 2008 Seminar featured presentations on stadium operations,  game operations, game production, security & safety, and staff training, as well as tours of local professional sports facilities. Past participants have included all 14 MLS teams, CONCACAF, United Stated Soccer Federation, The FA, The Bundesliga, the United Soccer Leagues (USL), US Club Soccer and many other corporate partners and professional associations.
