  • Pima County Begins Construction on New Soccer Stadium
    Pima County begins construction on new soccer stadium In the city of Tucson, soccer is not considered the sport of choice. In terms of attending a sporting event, that distinction belongs to University of Arizona men’s basketball, football or baseball. In terms of leisure, it belongs to golf. However, the fastest growing sport in the United States could be the solution to overcoming a nearly $1 million revenue deficit in a special taxing district of Pima County. Construction began April 25 on a new soccer stadium at the Kino Sports Complex as part of the Kino North Fields Modification Project. The construction of North Stadium, which will be operated and occupied by local semi-professional team FC Tucson, started a little over a month after the Pima County Board of Supervisors voted to provide $2.8 million to fund the creation of a 2,000-seat stadium, concession stands, a scoreboard and restrooms. North Stadium will be ready in time for FC Tucson’s 2014 season. This is phase two of a larger project to repurpose the Kino Sports Complex in an attempt to make up for revenue lost from the departure of Major League Baseball spring training. The goal is to make the complex more soccer-friendly by converting several baseball diamonds into soccer fields. “Pima County is investing $2.8 million in a new stadium because we believe this public-private partnership will bring children and families together, and help serve as an economic boost for our region by bringing more professional and youth soccer to the Kino Sports Complex,” said Richard Elias, Pima County District Five Supervisor.

  • Roller Derby: Past, Present, Future RESEARCH PAPER for ASU’S Global Sport Institute
    Devoney Looser, Foundation Professor of English Department of English, Arizona State University Tempe, AZ 85287-1401 [email protected] Roller Derby: Past, Present, Future RESEARCH PAPER for ASU’s Global Sport Institute SUMMARY Is roller derby a sport? Okay, sure, but, “Is it a legitimate sport?” No matter how you’re disposed to answer these questions, chances are that you’re asking without a firm grasp of roller derby’s past or present. Knowledge of both is crucial to understanding, or predicting, what derby’s future might look like in Sport 2036. From its official origins in Chicago in 1935, to its rebirth in Austin, TX in 2001, roller derby has been an outlier sport in ways admirable and not. It has long been ahead of the curve on diversity and inclusivity, a little-known fact. Even players and fans who are diehard devotees—who live and breathe by derby—have little knowledge of how the sport began, how it was different, or why knowing all of that might matter. In this paper, which is part of a book-in-progress, I offer a sense of the following: 1) why roller derby’s past and present, especially its unusual origins, its envelope-pushing play and players, and its waxing and waning popularity, matters to its future; 2) how roller derby’s cultural reputation (which grew out of roller skating’s reputation) has had an impact on its status as an American sport; 3) how roller derby’s economic history, from family business to skater-owned-and- operated non-profits, has shaped opportunity and growth; and 4) why the sport’s past, present, and future inclusivity, diversity, and counter-cultural aspects resonate so deeply with those who play and watch.
