Board President, Scott McMillin, has a long history with the community of Pleasanton. His family moved here in 1973, and as a youngster, he played recreational and competitive soccer with Ballistic United. Scott also played for Amador High School.

A graduate of California State University, Fresno, Scott recently retired after 30 years in sales and business development with various companies in the software industry.

Scott has served on the Board of Directors for BUSC for five years now, and although neither of his children are still playing soccer, he feels passionate about his role as the President of the Board of Directors, saying:

“I am a local guy and I care about this community. Playing soccer growing up kept me out of trouble and provided me with some lasting personal characteristics as well as life-long friendships. This is my opportunity to give back. I hope to foster that among as many of the Pleasanton kids as possible so that we can reach our goal of developing young men to meet their full potential through the beautiful game of soccer.”

Brian grew up playing soccer in various recreational programs and continued playing in high school. Because so many of his favorite childhood memories are of his time on the soccer field, he knew when he became a father that he wanted to help create similar memories of the beautiful game for his boys.

Brian has coached both of his sons in the BUSC Recreational program.  He enjoys continuing to coach his younger son in recreational soccer and has been excited to watch his older son grow, develop, and join the BUSC Competitive program.
