Philadelphia, Pa. (November 18, 2011)--USA Ultimate CEO, Dr. Tom Crawford, has been invited to speak at the Sixth Annual Ivy Sports Symposium today at the Wharton College of Business in Philadelphia. Crawford joins a panel of executives representing emerging sports, along with representatives from Major League Lacrosse, the American Rugby Management Group and the International Mind Sports Association.
The Ivy Sports Symposium is an annual sports business conference that rotates among the Ivy League schools and aims to facilitate interaction among students and professionals by providing a forum for communications and debate. It also enables executives to share knowledge with their peers and the executives across the sports administration and marketing industries.
“I was very excited to be invited to speak at the Ivy Sports Symposium”, noted Crawford. “ Presenting as part of the ‘Emerging Sports’ session alongside Lacrosse and Rugby speaks volumes about where we stand in the U.S. sports landscape as one of the fastest growing and most popular team sports. It is also a great networking and learning opportunity for me and USA Ultimate, as the Ivy Sports Symposium is attended by the top leaders across a very broad spectrum of the sports industry.”
