Episode 23 of The Guys in the Cheap Seats with Charles Campisi features John Poch. John is the Executive Director of the San Jose Sport Authority and talks to us about his journey and the challenges of moving from restauranteur and high school/youth soccer coach to college coach, who needed to take classes with his student-athletes to complete his degree, to athletic department administrator to his current role at the San Jose Sports Authority.

During the past 12 months, the San Jose Sport Authority has helped with the Amgen Tour of California Cycling Race, the Rock 'n' Roll San Jose Half Marathon, the U.S. Figure Skating Championships, the 2019 College Football Playoff National Championship Game between Clemson and Alabama, and 2019 NHL All-Star Game.

Additionally, hang on for the end of the podcast where John talks about his relationship with some of the former U.S. Women’s National Team soccer players and where he was for the iconic 1999 U.S. Women’s World Cup Championship game.
