CollClubSports is excited to announce that Christian Smith has been named the new Vice – President of Softball Operations. A 15 year veteran of CollClubSports, Christian began his career working in the Marketing Department as the Rawlings Account Manager before spending the past several years as the Vice President of Baseball and Basketball Operations. In his time as VP of Baseball Operations he successfully grew the NCBA to over 300 teams across 3 divisions prior to the pandemic, and has since led the NCBA back into action recovering over 90% of it’s prior membership. Under his watch as VP of Basketball Operations the NCBBA has grown to over 175 teams including the launch of a new women’s basketball division which has shattered previous CollClubSports milestones for membership numbers during an inaugural season.
We are excited to bring Christian’s talent and experience to the NCSA as he leads the league forward as we expect to expand into new markets and a second division in the near future.
Sincerely
Sandy Sanderson
President

It is with great sadness that we announce that after more than 12 years of dedicated service to CollClubSports, January 7th will be Savannah’s last day of employment with the NCSA.
Savannah has resigned her position as VP of Softball Operations in order to spend more time with her husband (Thomas) and sons (Easton and Nolan).
Savannah (fondly known as “Savs”) joined CollClubSports back in 2009 fresh out of the University of Georgia where she competed on the UGA Club Softball Team. She was hired to take on the responsibilities of NCBA/NCSA Regional Director and Director of Spring Training Operations where she grew the NCBA/NCSA Spring Training Showcase (Tampa, FL) into a “Must Attend” event for club baseball and softball teams from all over the country. Over the course of her tenure, she worked her way into the role of Director of Softball Team Development before ultimately earning a promotion to Vice President of Softball Operations.
On behalf of CollClubSports I would like to express our gratitude to Savannah for all the years of hard work and leadership she has contributed to the success of the National Club Softball Association. We wish you and your family a lifetime of health and happiness in all your future endeavors.
Moving forward, all NCSA related questions can be directed to NCSA President (Sandy Sanderson – [email protected]) or NCSA Assistant Director of Softball Operations (Lacie Lautner – [email protected]).
Sincerely
Sandy Sanderson
