Don’t just take our word for it, hear what these planners had to say.
“As an officer with the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and a longtime event host, I absolutely endorse Greensboro, North Carolina and Visit Greensboro, your choice for event operations and support. I have been hosting events in Greensboro for over a decade, and I found the facilities, the people, and the passion to be world class. My partners at Visit Greensboro have gone out of their way to ensure all of our events have been successful. Particularly I want to acknowledge the vision of Henri Fourrier and the hardest working partner in the industry, Brian Ambuehl!
Over the years, AAU events have brought to the Greensboro area well in excess of $100 million in economic impact in the past decade. This would not have been possible without the insight, creativity, and vision of the hard-working teammates at Visit Greensboro. I would be remiss if I admitted the absolutely outstanding Greensboro Coliseum the Greensboro Aquatic Center and their amazing staff.Scott Johnson and his team are professional, enthusiastic and hardworking. I often tell the staff at the Coliseum that you can put a great facility anywhere but you cannot find amazing staff anywhere!
Each time we come to the Coliseum, we honestly feel as if their staff are welcoming us to their home. They appreciate our customers they give them value for the money they’re spending, nothing seems to be too difficult when it comes to taking care of our customers. The facilities are safe, high-quality, and the staff never make you feel like anything is out of reach. As a Greensboro native, I am proud of “Tournnament Town” and I am thrilled to help bring those events and their economic impact ‘home'”
