During the recent and final Super Show, the SGMA made several changes to its Board of Directors. Richard Bourne, the COO & president of Asics America, Paul Ehrlich, the general counsel at adidas America, and Chris Considine, the president of Wilson Sporting Goods Co. were all named to the board. Current Board members, Wayne Merck, president & COO of K2 and Carl Ferraro, president of Regent Sports, were both promoted to the SGMA executive committee.
“This is a dynamic group of leaders within in the sporting goods industry who have pledged their support to SGMA as this trade association launches a new era,” said SGMA President Tom Cove. “These are exciting times filled with change on all fronts as we expand our presence and influence on Capitol Hill, in the trade show business, in market research, and in public relations initiatives. The support and guidance we receive from our board will help us be successful.”
