Grass Roots Buzzing

DrillBoard™ joined forces with Football-Jobs.com at this year's Grass Roots Football show at The NEC, Birmingham where we pre-launched DrillBoard™ World the latest version of our DrillBoard tactics and drills software used by coaches from International Level to Grass Roots.

We had a phenomenal response and there was a great buzz around the stand which is really exciting.

Thanks to everyone who popped by and an extra big thanks to Efrem Leigh, owner of Football-Jobs.com who was at the show for the 3 days, welcoming many candidates who use the site and letting them know that the brand new website is on its way soon.
