The Hampton Roads Sports Commission Welcomes New Executive Director 
Wes Hall

The Hampton Roads Chamber welcomes Wes Hall as the new Executive Director of the Hampton Roads Sports Commission. "I am excited to return home to Virginia to promote, market, and grow Hampton Roads into a premier sports destination; building the region into a great place to live, work, and most importantly, play," said Hall. "Hampton Roads is a sleeping giant in the sports tourism industry and is priming itself to take a larger share of the $10.47 billion sports tourism industry.”   

Hall returns to Hampton Roads from Omaha, Nebraska where he was President and Executive Director of the Omaha Sports Commission. Hall has over 15 years of experience in the sports industry including positions with the Potomac Nationals and the Sioux Falls Sports Authority.
