At this year’s American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO) event, our exhibition management team transformed a 24,565 sq. ft. hotel ballroom into an experience.
We used over 15,000 lbs of materials for the show. Handling was mainly done through placing the materials on pallet jacks and transporting them via forklifts.
In preparing to create the miniature soccer field inside the exhibit hall, our team laid 5,000 feet of Visqueen material to cover and protect the flooring and carpet.

The American Youth Soccer Association holds tri-section meetings regularly throughout the year. Their first section meeting in 2012 was held at the Marriot Hotel in Anaheim, CA.
As a relatively small show with only 45 exhibitors, the AYSO event required design elements that were both visually pleasing as well as cost-effective. This 9 x ½ meter entrance unit was made from foamcore and served to set a grand tone for the small yet important show.
The floor was divided into several parts—the exhibit hall itself, multiple rooms for breakout sessions and a reception hall in the lobby. AYSO also hosted a silent auction featuring the items on the high tables throughout the event.
SCORE, the official uniform provider for AYSO, had a 50 x 40 feet booth featuring apparel, breakout tables and video stations promoting their latest gear.
As a unique addition to the exhibit hall, a 50 x 100 feet miniature soccer field was constructed. Coaches and show personnel hosted engaging attendee activities on the field throughout the day.
Successfully servicing more than 45 exhibitors during the three-day event, GES and AYSO started off 2012 with a great show.
