    Imperialism and the 1999 Women's World Cup

    IMPERIALISM AND THE 1999 WOMEN’S WORLD CUP: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES AND NIGERIAN NATIONAL TEAMS IN THE U.S. MEDIA by Michele Canning A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida April 2009 Copyright by Michele Canning 2009 ii ABSTRACT Author: Michele Canning Title: Imperialism and the 1999 Women’s World Cup: Representations of the United States and Nigerian National Teams in the U.S. Media Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Josephine-Beoku-Betts Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2009 This research examines the U.S. media during the 1999 Women’s World Cup from a feminist postcolonial standpoint. This research adds to current feminist scholarship on women and sports by de-centering the global North in its discourse. It reveals the bias of the media through the representation of the United States National Team as a universal “woman” athlete and the standard for international women’s soccer. It further argues that, as a result, the Nigerian National Team was cast in simplistic stereotypes of race, class, ethnicity, and nation, which were often also appropriated and commodified. I emphasize that the Nigerian National Team resisted this construction and fought to secure their position in the global soccer landscape. I conclude that these biased representations, which did not fairly depict or value the contributions of diverse competing teams, were primarily employed to promote and sell the event to a predominantly white middle-class American audience.

    DAILY NEXUS THURSDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2019 www.dailynexus.com UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SANTA BARBARA U.S. Women’s Soccer Captains Speak on Gender Equality, World Cup Success at Arlington Theater Barbara Soccer Club and American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO). “It’s weird seeing her in person and not on my phone screen,” Reese Termond, a 17-year-old who attended the soccer clinic, said after seeing Rapinoe. “She’s actually human and not a robot that dribbles through people and scores goals.” Both on and off the field, Rapinoe was relaxed, personably cracking jokes as she gave advice and answered questions. Morgan was unable to assist at the clinic due to a knee injury but came later to the event to speak to the younger players, urging them to believe in themselves and their abilities. “Did I think that this would actually happen? I’m not sure. But I had the dream when I was 7, my mom believed in me, my family believed in me and that encouragement helped me become who I am today,” Morgan said after being asked by a player at the clinic if she always believed she would play professional soccer. Morgan and Rapinoe’s personal and professional growth was also discussed in-depth at their evening talk. Moderator Catherine Remak, from the radio station K-LITE, brought up their experiences playing high school and college soccer; Rapinoe played for the University of Portland and Morgan for UC Berkeley. Rapinoe joked about her experiences getting “walloped” as a high school player who was “never on a winning team.” But she admitted that the experience of losing led to growth, stating how “even at this level, we’ve had some really tough losses in our career and you can’t let that define you.” Both captains discussed some of the difficult defeats they’ve endured, referencing their loss to Japan at the 2011 FIFA World Cup on a penalty shootout in overtime as an example.

    Hyundai Motor America 10550 Talbert Ave, Fountain Valley, CA 92708 MEDIA WEBSITE: HyundaiNews.com CORPORATE WEBSITE: HyundaiUSA.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TURNER SPORTS SALES SIGNS HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA AS FIRST OFFICAL SPONSOR OF WOMEN’S UNITED SOCCER FOUNDATION Chris Hosford Corporate Communications Executive Director (714) 965­3470 [email protected] ID: 29044 FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Sep. 5, 2000 ­ Hyundai Motor America has signed on as the first official sponsor of the Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA) in a four­year, category­exclusive deal, it was announced today by Keith Cutler, executive vice president of Turner Sports Sales. Hyundai will be the official car of the WUSA, which will air on TNT and CNN/Sports Illustrated beginning in April 2001 . “As the first official sponsor of WUSA, Hyundai receives unprecedented brand association with a hot, new franchise that already has a large, loyal fan base,” said Cutler. “The broad scope of the sponsorship affords Hyundai maximum exposure nationally and locally, both on­air and off­air.” “Once Hyundai had experienced the excitement of the Women’s World Cup in the United States, we knew that women’s soccer had the potential to become an important part of the American sports scene,” said Hyundai Motor America Director of Marketing Paul Sellers. “We’re proud to be the first sponsor of the Women’s United Soccer Association.” “We’re very excited to have Hyundai on board as our first national sponsor,” said Lee Berke, Acting President of the WUSA. “We're glad that Hyundai will receive great value and exposure from their involvement with the WUSA.

    IDA Heritage Book

    Forward This book is dedicated to all who have been members of the door dealer associations and the contributions that each has made to the advancement of OUR industry. September 2015 Heritage of the International Door Association 1 Acknowledgments The compilation of this book would not have been possible without the efforts of many people. As Chairman of the Heritage Committee, I would like to personally acknowledge Michael Overbay, and Joyce Clingman for pouring through 30,000+ documents and the Heritage Committee mem- bers for their efforts in getting this to print. And finally, a special thank you to the Past Presidents who shared their reflections, thoughts and leadership in bringing us to where we are today. Theodore J. Billman 2002 Heritage Committee Chairman Heritage of the International Door Association 2 Preface The International Door Association was created with the merger in 1996 of the Far Western Garage Door Association and the Door & Operator Dealers Association. It’s colorful history reaches back to March, 1967, and is reflective of the numerous changes realized by the door systems industry. The most common IDA denominator is people, both those who have led the association, and those who have supported it in many other ways. It is because of many courageous volunteer visionaries that the predecessor associations (FWGDA and DODA) were organized. It was that same vision that ultimately brought the two groups together, creating a meaningful and valuable international organization. The purpose of this document is to capture the history of IDA for current and future reflection. By knowing our history, by examining our foundation, we will continue to build a strong and viable door dealer association far into the future.

    Dave Presher Began Work at the San Diego Spirit of the Women’S United Soccer Association, the WUSA’S Mortal Wounds Had Already Been (Self) Inflicted

    By the time Dave Presher began work at the San Diego Spirit of the Women’s United Soccer Association, the WUSA’s mortal wounds had already been (self) inflicted. After blowing through three-years of seed money in an orgy of spending leading up to opening day of its inaugural season, the WUSA stared into the abyss after two seasons of staggering financial losses. Corporate sponsorship badly underperformed expectations and TV ratings barely registered - distressing for a league founded and subsidized by cable television operators. Presher was a 20-year sales veteran of the radio industry, but a pro sports novice. He was expected to apply his promotional know-how to fill seats for the Spirit, a club which already paced the WUSA in season ticket sales. Although brought on as a revenue-side hire, Presher immediately dove into player personnel - transforming an on-field product he found “in shambles“. Trades in the WUSA were rare and unremarkable. The top American players held an equity stake in the league and a say in which cities they agreed to play in. A few weeks into the job, Presher engineered the biggest trade in league history, shipping veterans Shannon Boxx, Margaret Tietjen and Sherrill Kester, along with the #2 overall pick in the 2003 college draft, to the New York Power. In return, San Diego received the #1 overall pick and midfielders Jen Lalor and Wynne McIntosh. The key to the trade was that #1 pick, which Presher used to draft Aly Wagner, the young U.S. National Team midfielder projected to be the best attacking player of her generation.
