sports programs over the past few years.

This seminar will provide tips and tools for
safeguarding your club's financial assets.
The presentation will be delivered by The
Center for Fraud Prevention, an organization dedicated to reducing embezzlement in youth sports. The presenters, Erik

are experts in this field and currently serve
