JESS DANNELLY MEGAN MATTHEWS JEN CHAMBERLIN HEAD COACH BUNING ASSISTANT ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH COACH WHAT T HEY ’RE S AYING A BOUT J ESS D ANNELLY ’S R ETIREMENT Team USA and University of Arizona Head Coach Mike Candrea I have known Jess for a long time and have always enjoyed my time with him, discussing the game and many, many more topics. Jess has done a wonderful job with Coastal Carolina over the years, being able to bring in good talent and making them better. I have always enjoyed his sense of humor and his true passion for the sport and "his" university. Congrats to Jess! Kennesaw State Head Coach Scott Whitlock Jess was one of the pioneers for collegiate softball in the South. His knowledge and his willingness to share it has touched hundreds of players and coaches. The game is better for having had a Jess Dannelly in it. I have great respect for him. Certain relationships are developed over one’s career. I am honored and fortunate to call Jess Dannelly my friend. Over the years, his family and mine have become quite close. His two sons (“Q” and Travis) are like nephews to me; and, his lovely wife, Wendy, is so very special (and a saint)! I’m the oldest of four children, but if I had a big brother, I would want it to be someone like Jess. Tennessee Co-Head Coach Ralph Weekly Karen (co-head coach Weekly), Marty (assistant coach McDaniel) and I have known Jess for several years and have always been impressed by his leadership, knowledge and ability to coach the game of softball. He is one of the true pioneers of our sport and a person we respect as both a mentor and friend. We wish him well in his retirement. North Carolina Head Coach Donna J. Papa Jess has done an outstanding job as the longtime softball coach at Coastal Carolina. We have played some exciting games over the years as friendly rivals. I have enjoyed his humor and friendship over the years working camps together, attending conventions, and recruiting. He has always had his players best interest at heart and has always fielded top teams and produced some outstanding players in his conference. I wish him well going forward and will miss his many Southern expressions. Louisiana State Head Coach Yvette Girouard Jess Dannelly is one of the true good guys in our world of collegiate softball. An imposing figure on the field, Jess is admired and respected by many in this profession. I will always consider myself lucky to be called his friend and wish he and his family untold happiness in their days ahead with this retirement. Radford Head Coach Mickey Dean Coach Dannelly has done so much for the game of softball and for me personally. It’s funny. I see these items in softball magazines, selling for a lot of money, and I tell people all the time, “Jess Dannelly was making some of these items by hand years before someone else put a patent on them and started to sell them.” That’s what I admire about Jess. It has never been about the money or notoriety. He has always done this for the game and the kids. There are many who will miss Coach Dannelly, especially since he is responsible for getting many of us started. I wish him the best of luck and you may want to let him know that I will still be calling on him for advice. 2009 C OASTAL C AROLINA Q UICK F ACTS Coastal Carolina University Quick Facts Table of Contents GENERAL Quick Facts .................................................................................................... 1 Institution: ....................................................................Coastal Carolina University Roster .............................................................................................................2 Location: ...........................................................................

Barnes Abstract To date, few studies have focused on understanding fans of women’s sport, which is especially true with regard to consumption intentions. This study was undertak- en to 1) examine fans’ attitudes toward women’s sports, including both cognitive and affective evaluations as related to consumption intentions; 2) identify salient product attributes of women’s sports related to fans’ consumption intentions; and 3) examine group differences on attitudes.

    Chasing Equity: The Triumphs, Challenges, and Opportunities in Sports for Girls and Women A Women’s Sports Foundation Report, January 2020 January Report, Sports Foundation A Women’s We exist to unlock the possibilities of every girl and woman through the power of sport. The time for equity is now. At the Women’s Sports Foundation, we recognize that knowledge is power. WSF’s latest report, Chasing Equity: The Triumphs, Challenges and Opportunities in Sports for Girls and Women shines a light on the current landscape for girls and women in sport reflected in the latest data from more than 500 research reports and results from a new national survey of more than 2,300 women working in women’s sport. Taking stock of where we are in achieving gender equity in sport requires study, transparency and candor. This groundbreaking report brings together the latest facts and milestones and elevates the voices of women offering fresh insight and perspective. Importantly the report includes calls to action to help propel momentum for change. Stakeholders in all areas of sport, from grassroots to high school, college and elite athletics, collegiate administrators, coaches, policymakers, leaders in the corporate and media sectors all have a critical role to play. WSF is committed to keeping these conversations at the forefront and working collaboratively with others to accelerate the pace of change. Continued progress depends on comprehensive, up-to-date information in real time. Only when we operate from a shared understanding of the landscape can we ensure thoughtful conversation and sound decision-making necessary for progress.

    Braking News The Official Newsletter of the Stratford Brakettes/Junior Brakettes/18U Select Brakettes Volumne 3,Issue 2 Editor: Bob Baird (203) 218-1066 December 2020 FAU SLUGGER ANSWERED THE ‘CALL’ FOR THE STRATFORD BRAKETTES Stephanie Call never got the opportunity to represent the United States on the softball diamond. She played her Brakettes career just three years into a 12-year hiatus from softball’s next scheduled appearance in the 2020 Olympics. Well, she finally got her chance to play for Team USA last summer as a member of the USA Softball Women’s Slow Pitch Futures team. It’s doubtful she would have received a look if there had been Olympic Games in 2012 or 2016 since the selection process is heavily slanted toward college standouts in the Power Five Conferences. It’s similar to the College Football Playoff where the SEC, Big Ten, and ACC are the chief powerbrokers. Nevertheless, Stephanie Call played on some of the finest teams in Brakettes softball history from 2011-2014. She played three years and eight games, a total of 202 games. During that time the Brakettes compiled a 200-8 overall record and posted two unbeaten seasons (2011 and 2013). Coming to Stratford from Florida Atlantic University, where she played for Hall of Famer Joan Joyce, the 6-foot-2 Call arrived highly touted and she didn’t disappoint. The Fort Lake, FL, native set the individual season home run record with 31 in her first year and followed with marks of 21 and 22. Coming back for a long weekend in 2014, Call played in eight wins and hit five solo homers in 16 at bats, finishing her career with 79 home runs, good for the No.

  • Interview of Cheri Kempf, Commissioner of National Pro Fastpitch
    Interview of Cheri Kempf, commissioner of National Pro Fastpitch. by Gaétan Alibert, Honus www.honus.fr The current championship celebrates its tenth anniversary. How is the NPF? We just finished our 11th season of NPF action. The NPF has 4 strong owners. Our priorities at this point are expansion, securing solid ownership for more teams. The NPF is optimistic in continuing to move forward and position ourselves as a legitimate sports entertainment option both in-venue and on television. What are the strengths that enable the success of the league? #1 The talent is second to none. The NPF is the most competitive level of fastpitch softball in the world. #2 The sport itself is extremely popular in the United States. NCAA has proven the overwhelming success of the sport on television. At times, NCAA Softball has come in 3rd in all sports for television ratings...with only NCAA football and men's basketball in front. So, popularity is there. #3 The aforementioned positions television networks to have an interest in the sport at the professional level. What challenges do you still? The biggest challenge right now, is the non-engagement of corporate America in women's sports overall. There are a lot of opportunities for the NPF and a lot of opportunities for the NPF to be able to contribute positively to ROI of corporate partners. However, those potential partners are still opting to invest in men's sports - of ANY kind - rather than to invest in women's sports. What are the current or future plans for the organization? Continued growth in the areas of corporate partnership, team expansion, and television Is it not too hard to move in the shadow of the MLB and professional baseball in general? The challenge is not just MLB, but the mindset of corporate America to continue to do what they've always done and invest in men's sports.

Imposing sex segregation on sports is problematic for many reasons. Sex segregation reflects and reinforces a binary view of both sex and gender unsupported by science. It communicates that women are physically unable to compete against men, even though research indicates considerable variation among individual athletes and different sports, and further reveals that attributes other than sex are often more important determinants of athletic ability. It reinforces unfounded gender stereotypes that harm both women and men. And sex segregation uncritically prioritizes athletic activities involving strengths typically associated with male bodies, without requiring us to ask why we view these strengths as the most important in the first place.
