Goalmouth Scramble Podcast
"The fantasy sports industry continues to grow as 19.4 million people are now actively playing in the U.S. and Canada," a release from the Fantasy Sports Trade Association said. With this level of popularity, it is no secret that fantasy sports have infiltrated the workplace across the world resulting in conversations and even fantasy sports play occurring on company time.
"All of our employees talk about SoccerManager around the store, so why not turn the banter into something that benefits our customers and the soccer community in general?" said Curtis Stelzer, co-owner of SoccerPro.
Curtis, a retired professional soccer player of 9 years, will be the lead host for the Goalmouth Scramble and will deliver the kind of discussion soccer fans want. Goalmouth Scramble will delve into the world of fantasy soccer and the Internet's largest sim game, SoccerManager. The landmark show touches on "9 Myths Almost Every SoccerManager Player Believes, Even the Really Good Ones". The podcast will highlight the rabid following of fantasy soccer in a country where football and baseball get all of the mainstream publicity.
Featuring insight on all things soccer, Goalmouth Scramble will also deliver a colorful commentary on the beautiful game ranging from league roundups, transfer rumors, current issues in the game and fantasy soccer discussion. A rotating mix of SoccerPro's soccer-fanatic staff, which will share its opinions on the podcast's topics, will join Stelzer. Informed and opinionated, the staff boasts an impressive mix of players, coaches and parents to share perspectives from all angles.
