Annual Conference
The NSA hosts a conference in the summer every year in the first week of July in cities throughout the United States. These cities included Scottsdale, AZ in 2010, Fort Worth, TX in 2011, and St. Petersburg, FL in 2012. The next conference will again be in Scottsdale, AZ in 2013. The conference begins with a two day research symposium with presentations and workshops by experts in the field, which is then followed by a five day general conference which features workshops led by the experts and by volunteers, as well as a keynote. In 2011, the keynote was presented by David Seidler, screenwriter of The King's Speech.

“Time that scatters hair upon a head
Spreads the ice sheet on the shaven lawn;
Signing an annual permit for the frost....”

“For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.”
