From the TVSFMA President

2024 is off to a Fast Start!

Fertilizer has been ordered, equipment has been serviced and spring is right around the corner. Coaches, Athletic Directors, Players, Customers and your family are all needing something from you right about now, and as you already know managing everyone’s expectations is the most difficult part of our jobs. We can’t all be everywhere giving everyone exactly what they want right when they want it. So set their expectations and prioritize what needs to be done and when. Be sure to keep yourself organized and do your very best to meet the expectations you set. I truly feel if we can do this, we can all be successful this coming season. I fully understand it’s easier said than done, but I truly believe it is a recipe for success.

Last year was a good year for the TVSFMA as a whole. We had an involved board full of eager people that wanted to do what was best for our members and sponsors. We had some wonderful events in Alabama, Murfreesboro and Kentucky. We met and signed up new members and started the journey of new growth. We have already started the path to an even better 2024 with events scheduled in Knoxville, Alabama and Nashville!

We also have our new website up and running (www.tvsfma.org). From our website you can renew your membership / sponsorship and view upcoming meetings. Do you have a job opening? You can post it right on the website.

We had a great year, but something was missing in 2023: YOU! Our meeting attendance was down at two of the three meetings, and some great sponsors have disappeared. I set a challenge to the board, and I want to include membership in that challenge. If you are joining us for any meetings, bring a friend who has never been or has not been in a while. Help us provide you with the best year of TVSFMA ever!
