“I want to express my gratitude on behalf of NABA Intercity for your help in bringing our Filipino Heritage Basketball, Volleyball, and Badminton Tournament to Atlantic City. The Filipino Community across North America had a great time and was able to take in what Atlantic City had to offer. You made us feel welcomed and safe around the city. Your professionalism and dedication to our event did not go unnoticed. We appreciate you giving us your undivided attention and patience. I hope to bring in more of the Filipino Community events to Atlantic City with your help. Keep shining in all that you do!” Champ Albano, President, NABA Intercity

“On behalf of Coach Jimmy Johnson and our team at Fish Hard Events, we are grateful for our partnership with the Atlantic City Sports Commission. When we thought of the idea of expanding our Florida-based fishing tournament to Atlantic City, they were there to introduce us to the key players and make meaningful connections to ensure a successful event was created for the destination and that the destination benefitted from the event coming up to Atlantic City. They are there to put the time and energy into helping the destination and everyone should be so lucky to have a team like them working hard for their area. In just one year, we have been able to bring a world-class event and make a big splash in the northeast fishing community, and with the help and partnership of the Atlantic City Sports Commission, we look forward to growing this event for many years to come. Their staff knows everyone and anyone and are so wonderful to work with and made the inaugural year of producing JJFISHWEEKAC in an unknown destination that much more enjoyable and logistically feasible.” -Valerie Roy, Director of Marketing and Client Strategy, CI Management
