While the historical namesake of Thomas Phelps is widely known as an 1880s Rear Admiral for the U.S. Navy, the current version of Thomas Phelps is doing his best to ensure that the traditions of the Naval Athletic Association stay alive through his multiple group sales and donation efforts. Phelps, serving in a capacity of Executive Sales Associate for External Relations and Group Sales, talks at length about his role with the military institution, and some of the misconceptions that the public have about the facility's athletic budget sources. Phelps discusses his role in minor league sports, as Chief Marketing Officer of three collegiate wooden bat league teams at once, then transforms the conversation toward an oral history of the NBADL's start during his tenure as that organization's first ticket manager.
