Tampa, Fla. June 10, 2025 —The Tampa Bay Soccer Hall of Fame is proud to announce a new partnership with HCP Associates, a Tampa-based marketing and strategic consulting firm, as an official Founders Club Member and Sponsor. The collaboration highlights a shared commitment to celebrating the region’s rich soccer legacy and fostering community pride.
Since its official unveiling in March 2024, the TBSHOF has worked to preserve and honor the stories, achievements, and individuals that have helped shape soccer in the Tampa Bay area. HCP Associates has played a vital role in bringing the Hall of Fame to life—leading the development of its brand identity, digital presence, and strategic launch initiatives.
“We’re thrilled to welcome HCP Associates as a Founders Club Member,” said Perry Van Der Beck, member of the TBSHOF Board of Directors. “Their expertise and community-driven mission align perfectly with the Hall of Fame’s goals, and their early support has been invaluable to our success.”
HCP Partner Sean Coniglio, who also serves on the TBSHOF Board of Directors, has helped champion the partnership, combining his professional experience and personal passion for the sport to elevate the Hall of Fame’s visibility and outreach.
“For over 40 years, HCP has supported initiatives that strengthen the identity and unity of the Tampa Bay region,” said Eric Polins, Managing Partner at HCP Associates. “Being part of the Tampa Bay Soccer Hall of Fame is more than a sponsorship—it’s a tribute to the power of sport to bring people together and inspire the next generation.”
As a Founders Club Member, HCP joins a select group of visionary partners who are helping lay the groundwork for the TBSHOF’s future, including its highly anticipated inaugural induction event in August 2025.
