Virginia Beach Sports Club

Under Construction

 Crying Towel

VBSC
A great time was had by all at the Va. Beach Sports Club Crying Towel luncheon, featuring the 9 of the Beach District's HS football coaches.  They were all good sports, poking fun at each other, themselves and their programs.  Ray Gatlin, coach at Princess Anne HS came away with the crying towel this year.
 
Our next meeting will be Tuesday, September 14, 2010 and it will be our annual picnic.  The picnic is at the Cavalier Golf & Yacht Club pavilion and starts at 5 pm.  There will be great food, fun games and a lot of laughs.  Cost is $25 per person.  Please be on the lookout for an e-mail from Harry Acker regarding this fun event.

 August 2010 Note

VBSC

Speaker on August 10:

Mitch Callis, a certified trainer with Children's Hospital.  He was head trainer at Norfolk State University for 25 years.  He also owns a training business called Sports Med Plus.

August 17:

Crying Towel Luncheon, featuring the 11 high school football coaches from Virginia Beach.  They will have 3 minutes to tell us about the woes of their team this year.

The fun both weeks begin with a buffet lunch at 12:30 and speakers to follow around 1 pm.  All are located at the Cavalier Golf and Yacht Club in Va. Beach.


In July, we were thrilled to have Heather McKeating, Community Relations Director with the Norfolk Tides, come and talk to us about the Tides and baseball in general.  We also heard from Malissa Gunter, a VBSC scholarship recipient in 1991.  She was a cheerleader at Green Run HS and went on to further her education at UVA.  She talked to us about what has been going on in her life since she received her scholarship from the club.

 May 2010 Note

VBSC
We would like to thank Bobby Jordan Jr for coming in to talk about the world of professional boxing. We would like to thank our outgoing President Brian Zittrain for the work he has done this past year. Hid diligence has been an inspiration with raising money through corporate sponsors. On behalf of our membership we would like to extend a special thank you to our incoming President Jim Kinzel as he worked very hard on the success of the Jamboree. Jim and the Jamboree committee spent many hours to ensure the 2010 Jamboree was a success. Congratulations to all the award winners and we wish ALL recipients the best of luck as they prepare for next phase after high school. To the coaches, parents, teachers and administrators the success of our awardees (coaches and students) is not done alone. Your assistance, help, tutoring, nurturing, determination and desire to see them succeed is sometimes forgotten. The VBSC would like to thank the people in the lives of the coaches and students for giving the support and guidance to excel. 

As we head into May we are pleased to announce that incoming Athletic Director Dr. Camden Wood Selig of Old Dominion University will be speaking on May 11 at the Cavalier. As we are thrilled to have Dr. Selig come we lose one of the most notable and visible people in the athletic community in Hampton Roads. Dr. Jim Jarrett has been very gracious to the VBSC to assist us when needed. Thank you Dr. Jarrett for your dedication to ODU and the Hampton Roads community, it has been an honor to have you as part of the VBSC and the VBSC. Fair winds and following seas to you and your family, you have sailed the one of the greatest ships that has ever sailed, ODU Athletics. 

Camden Wood Selig, athletic director at Western Kentucky University, has been named the new director of athletics for Old Dominion University on February 19, 2010.  A native of Norfolk, Selig (pronounced SEE-lig) has spent the past 11 years directing the Hilltopper program, which has won 65 Sun Belt Conference championships since 2000 and a national- record 19 crowns over the past two years. He was a key figure in garnering support for the WKU football program's move from NCAA Division I-AA to I-A in 2007, and he spearheaded more than $100 million in new construction and renovations of Hilltopper facilities.
Prior to arriving at WKU, Selig spent 11 years at the University of Virginia, the last five as associate athletics director for external operations. He began his athletics career in 1985 at Virginia Commonwealth University as an assistant athletic director and director of ticket operations. A graduate of Norfolk Collegiate School, Selig grew up in Norfolk less than a half mile from the ODU campus. He will arrive in early May, then begin a two-month transition as he replaces Dr. Jim Jarrett, who has served as ODU’s athletic director for more then 40 years.

Selig is a current member of the NCAA Women's Basketball Committee and has served as chair for both the Sun Belt Conference Athletic Directors and the Men's Basketball Committees during his tenure at WKU. He earned a bachelor's degree in psychology from Washington and Lee University, a master's in sports administration from Ohio University and a doctorate in education leadership from the University of Virginia.

Selig and his wife, Ellen, have three children, Lex, 12, Nick, 10, and Julianna, 6.
