Nancy Yawn
Director, Round Rock CVB
Round Rock, Texas
Nancy Yawn delivers a world-class experience with every tournament played in her dynamic community. But the city of Round Rock wasn’t always that way. When Yawn began her role in Round Rock, Texas, she knew the city could offer more, so she spearheaded the efforts to turn Round Rock, a city with untapped sports potential, into the Sports Capital of Texas: the premier, home-run destination for youth and amateur sports. Yawn continues to dedicate her time, energy and coaching to put Round Rock in the playbook.
Career Accomplishments
Not only has Yawn helped put Round Rock on the map as the Sports Capital of Texas, she has also helped build it into an international case study for city tourism. She was named one of the top 50 planners in the U.S. for four years and was awarded the CSEE designation through the National Association of Sports Commissions. Yawn also holds DMAI’s designation of Certified Marketing Executive.
Rave Review
“Nancy Yawn has been a great mentor and supporter of our organization, and she has helped pave the way to make Round Rock, Texas, the Sports Capital of Texas,” says Rick Stevens, tournament director of Blue Diamond Tournaments.
My dream event to attend is… the Texas Longhorns winning the national championship.
