News on leadership team growth, technology, and program enhancements below:
Two months ago we announced a formal search for a full time executive director, while highlighting the tremendous growth and positive community impacts our Club has experienced.
We’re now pleased to announce the exciting updates and additions to our leadership team:
Steve Henson has accepted our Executive Director position! We couldn’t be more happy to lean on Steve’s many years of Executive Director, and other professional leadership experience to strategically guide our Club to new heights. Steve will continue to lead our 9U/10U Academy Program, which has positively impacted player development for those players entering into the Academy program for almost two years now.

George Brown is our next U11+ Director of Coaching! George will guide our Academy Select Program as our U11+ Director of Coaching. Coach Brown who comes to us from Lexington where he served as Head Men's Soccer Coach at Campbellsville University Harrodsburg, and Executive Director of Kentucky United Soccer Club, will assume a full time role with SKY Soccer Club. As many of you know our Academy program has more than doubled over the last few years to now over 400 competitive players. The addition of a Director of Coaching focused on our 11U and older teams will continue to grow and enhance coaching, player, and team success!
Teel Hartmann is our new full time Administrative Director! Teel brings a strong skill set to further enhance member and community engagement through a focus on our Club’s administrative, operational and community engagement needs. Teel holds a Master’s Degree in Sports Administration and her athletic accomplishments include both Division I College Swimming and Coaching.
We are fortunate to have assembled an amazing leadership team, and a great group of like minded Program Directors and Staff to serve southern Kentucky communities, grow the game of soccer, and deliver on our mission of developing great players and great people

Technology and Program enhancement announcements:
Transition to GotSport software for all of our registration and communication app needs as a Club. In alignment with the Kentucky Youth Soccer Association, we’ll be moving to GotSport beginning May 1st for all program registrations. GotSport has a wonderful mobile application that we will use for all registration, scheduling, team communication, etc. in place of TeamSnap beginning this summer. Previously we used a combination of Demosphere and TeamSnap for these applications but will now have a single solution for all. We’re excited to have a single platform and single account for members to manage and follow all of their SKY Soccer activities!
7U-10U Recreational Program enhancements for our recreational program in Bowling Green. We’re always looking for ways to enhance the quality of our programs and bring as many opportunities to players of all levels as possible. Big news coming on player development opportunities for recreational players in these age divisions beginning this fall!
