Our Story: Unmatched Style, Innovation and Function

DESIGNED FOR COACHES BY COACHES

G-board founders Tony Freccero and Steve Brown were bored with plain white dry erase boards and set out to make the ultimate customizable board that allowed coaches to show their school/team spirit and add life to their pre-game and timeouts. 

They then set out to innovate products to make the life of coaches more organized and more functional and their collection of Dry Erase Boards, NoteBooks, Sticker Boards, Rookie Boards, ScoutBooks and PlayBooks are a must have for every coach and sports fan.

ABOUT OUR FOUNDERS

Tony was fed up with his plain white board he used during timeouts and how he couldn’t distinguish his board from his assistant’s board.  He knew that other coaches would love the idea of having their home floor on their coaching boards and started to make the boards out of his office with business partner Steve Brown.

Tony holds a degree in Business (Marketing and Computer Networking) from Cal State Hayward and a Master’s Degree in Kinesiology and Sports Psychology from Cal State East Bay. Tony is a worldwide traveler, camper, surfer and enjoys spending time exploring the world with his wife.
