Four decades of building useful things around the game.
SoccerMagic.com brings together the projects, publications, clubs, software tools, stories, and businesses created under the SoccerMagic name. Some are active. Some are historical. Some are free resources. Together, they show the path from a 1983 soccer board game to today’s SoccerMagic Strategy Board.

The Story Behind SoccerMagic
This site is not a résumé. It is the record of what was built: a board game, a magazine, a club, a writing tool, a book, a stadium announcer, a coaching board, media projects, and businesses that grew from real needs.
The point is simple: when soccer, teaching, or business presented a problem, SoccerMagic usually answered by building something.
