Mike
Cornell is the Sports Marketing Manager for slow-pitch softball and
youth baseball at Worth Sports. Cornell has become so successful
with his methodology because he has seen the games from every
perspective, beginning with his days at Woodbridge High School in
Virginia. He played football, basketball and baseball in high school and
also spent time as a teenager working in a local sporting goods store.
He then joined the United States Coast Guard upon graduating from high
school and wound up in South Florida, where he continued to work
part-time in the industry while also experiencing for the first time the
fun of playing slow-pitch softball.
While in the Coast Guard, Cornell became
manager of Lombard’s Golf and Tennis in North Miami Beach and handled
all of the company’s team sales. He moved to the Tampa-St. Petersburg
area around the time he and his wife, Denise, were married, where he
started working at Gulf Shores Sports. He later joined Worth while the
company made some of the greatest advances ever in its product line.
