The NFCA has built upon the legacy of Mary Nutter/National Sports Clinics by hosting more than 2,300 coaches per season (8 clinics per season) from across the country during the NFCA Coaches Clinics presented by GameChanger. With up to 500 attendees seeking out world-class education and vendors each winter season (December-January) these regional offerings will connect you to the decision-makers you seek in the sport of softball. 

Our speaker schedules have built-in breaks for exhibit-only time, as well as an evening social hour.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

EXTRAS
Electricity, internet and power needs vary from hotel to hotel. Once registered, companies will receive site-specific information regarding additional service needs prior to the clinic. Each exhibitor is responsible for any additional fees associated with hotel services, along with meeting hotel deadlines.

NO ENDORSEMENTS PERMITTED
Please do not ask our speakers to endorse any of your products/services on stage. This puts them and our attendees in a very difficult position.

RECORDING
Photography, video, and audio taping for a general overview of the Exhibit Show and within company booth space for company social media, website, or promotional purposes is allowed. This must be minimal in nature and not disrupt other companies or any other programming within the Exhibit Show. No full productions are allowed, including lighting or additional sound equipment. Exhibitors should not photograph, video or audio tape at booth space other than their own. 

ADVERTISING
