  • Fred Barakat Sports Dinner Presented by the Carroll Companies Featuring Two-Time National Championship Football Coach Dabo Swinney Postponed Until 2022
    FRED BARAKAT SPORTS DINNER PRESENTED BY THE CARROLL COMPANIES FEATURING TWO-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP FOOTBALL COACH DABO SWINNEY POSTPONED UNTIL 2022 For Immediate Release. April 12, 2021 GREENSBORO, N.C. – Although the United States is making progress in its ongoing battle with the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 Fred Barakat Sports Dinner presented by the Carroll Companies, originally scheduled for 2020, is now scheduled for 2022, the Greensboro Sports Council announced today. Clemson University Football and two-time National Championship coach Dabo Swinney graciously postponed his appearance a second time and will speak at the 2022 Fred Barakat Sports Dinner presented by the Carroll Companies benefitting the Matt Brown Learn-to-Swim Endowment on Tuesday, April 12, 2022. Founded in 2008, The Fred Barakat Sports Dinner was renamed in 2011 in memory of the late associate commissioner of the Atlantic Coast Conference. Swinney led the Clemson Tigers to two of the last five College Football Playoff national championships taking the title in 2017 and ’19. Swinney’s appearance at the Fred Barakat Sports Dinner will raise funds for the Matt Brown Learn-to-Swim program which aims to teach every second-grade student in the Guilford County School System water-safety skills. Sixty-four percent of African American, 45 percent of Hispanic/Latino and 40 percent of Caucasian children do not know how to swim. Drowning is the second-leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States, and formal swimming lessons reduce the likelihood of childhood drowning by 88 percent. “I’m looking forward to speaking in Greensboro next spring to help raise money for a great cause and remember the life of Fred Barakat who did so much for ACC Basketball,” Swinney said in 2019 after first accepting the invitation to speak at the Greensboro dinner.

  • JULY 15, 1973 and Director of Athletics of Each Member Institution June 22
    First Special Convention To Decide Reorganization The Official Notice of the Association’s first Special Convention was mailed to the chief executive officer, faculty athletic representative VOL. 10 l NO. 9 JULY 15, 1973 and director of athletics of each member institution June 22. The Special Convention, first in the 67-year history of the NCAA, will be held Aug. 6-7 at the Hyatt Regency-O’Hare Hotel in Chicago, Ill. The proposed amendments to be considered at the Special Conven- tion, numbering 14, will deal with the legislative reorganization of the Association. They were drafted by the 1973 Special Committee on Re- organization and are to be sponsored by the NCAA Council. The proposals would divide NCAA member institutions into three competitive divisions and contain provisions to allow each division to develop criteria for membership in that division and to adopt BY- laws which shall apply only to that division. Another proposed amendment deals with the restructuring of the Council, reducing its size to 16 members and guaranteeing member- ship to each division, An amendment proposed by the Middle Atlantic and Mason-Dixon Conferences would provide for equal representation for Divisions II and III as compared to Division I. The amendments to be considered also include the machinery to establish NCAA Championship meets and tournaments for all three divisions. The Council will meet prior to the Special Convention from Friday, Aug. 3 until Sunday, Aug. 5. Special Convention registration will take place Monday, with the opening scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. with President Alan J. Chap- man, professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Rice Uni- versity, presiding.
