Aurora, IL – June 24, 2006 – Scoutware, the collegiate athletic industry leader in recruiting communications, joined leading college athletic administrators at the annual National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Convention.

This year’s event was held June 20-23, 2006, in New Orleans, Louisiana, and focused on examining modern day issues encountered by athletic administrators at all levels.  General sessions were held for the entire membership along with breakout sessions, which are geared to the specific needs of administrators at all levels of the NCAA, NAIA and NJCAA.

The Scoutware booth was one of the most visited sites during the four day convention.  “For us, this was a chance to get in front of athletic administrators and show them the impact Scoutware can have on their department.  Several of our newer developments are aimed at becoming a communications solution for the entire athletic department – from individual programs using it to recruit student athletes, to alumni outreach, marketing/development, and compliance reporting,” said Scoutware president Jeff Murphy.
