EP 14: Research Roundtable

The idea behind the “Research Roundtable” is to provide a forum for SASH members to discuss their current research projects and connect with other researchers who may be able to share useful advice and information.

The presenters for the inaugural Research Roundtable, hosted by Tom McCabe, are:

• Steven Torres, president of the Association of North, Central America & The Caribbean Football Investigators, on the 60th anniversary of the first official club tournament in Concacaf, the Champions’ Cup (1962-2008), predecessor of the Concacaf Champions League
• Chuck Carlson on soccer in the coalfields of Illinois from 1880s to 1920s
• Bob Gansler on German-language newspaper coverage of Milwaukee’s soccer scene. By the 1930s, German immigrants were making their mark on Milwaukee soccer and two German-language newspapers — Milwaukee Deutscher Zeitung and Milwaukee Herold — covered the scene. Bob will discuss how he finds, saves, translates, and collates information from these valuable resources
