Soccer: a way of life for David Bird

It’s been milestones galore here at ColoradoSoccerNow.com recently.

On Thursday, we reached a milestone on twitter.com: 100 followers!

The same day, we received our 100th comment on the Web site in our first month of operating.

And today, I’m proud to announce our first sponsors. Perhaps you’ve noticed the ads on the right side of our homepage.

The Colorado Force was our first sponsor, and Sawol is our first advertiser.

Sawol stands for Soccer: a way of life. And owner David Bird, a 24-year-old who hails from Vermont, has always loved that lifestyle.

“Since I was in high school, I always wanted to start a soccer brand,” Bird said. “I grew up with a passion for the game, and the logical conclusion was to have a profession related to the sport. I saw the need for a U.S.-based soccer brand that was dedicated 100 percent to the beautiful game.”

So last year, Bird decided to launch the business.

“Since that time, we have never looked back,” he said. “If you work hard, you can reap the benefits. Whether it is on the pitch or in the office, true success and happiness only come through hard work and dedication.”

Seeing soccer embraced in the United States is one of Bird’s motivations, one we share wholeheartedly at ColoradoSoccerNow.

Another was to create a company that focuses completely on soccer.

“Too many companies try to be soccer companies but lose their way by diversifying in multiple sports,” Bird said. “We are dedicated completely to soccer.”

So take some time and head over to Sawolsoccer.com. If you’re on our homepage, just click the Sawol link to take you right there. Or use this link, and go there right now.

It’s a beautiful Web page with some great products … and more on the way all the time. The current Sawol line includes of men’s and women’s long-sleeve T-shirts, women’s short-sleeve T-shirts, casual track jackets and match level soccer balls. 

Check it out. And tell ‘em ColoradoSoccerNow sent ya.
