As a coalition of over 400 youth sports organizations, we are calling upon your leadership to provide economic stability to the youth sports sector which has been dramatically disrupted by this crisis.

  • Stanford Field Hockey Stanford Athletics— Home of Champions
    2002 Stanford Field Hockey Stanford Athletics— Home of Champions “Home of Champions.” Those are the bywords for the Stanford University Athletic Department. And for good reason. No athletic department in the country can boast of the kind of success that Stanford has accomplished since the 1980s. NCAA team champions. NCAA individual champions. Olympic medalists. Stanford University athletes have been all over the world capturing championships. The statistics speak for themselves Stanford University has won 66 NCAA team championships since 1980, the most in the nation; Cardinal athletes have won 43 NCAA championships since 1990—again the most in the nation. Stanford has brought home 19 NCAA champi- onship trophies the past five years, including an unprecedented six NCAA team titles in 1996-97. In 1991-92, Stanford athletes took home 29 individual NCAA titles—an NCAA record. Cardinal athletes won 21 individual championships during the 1992-93 season, the second most in history. Even more impressive is Stanford’s string of eight consecutive Sears Directors’ Cup titles (1995-02). The award honors the nation’s top overall athletic program and with eight straight #1 finishes, it’s no wonder Stanford is considered the dominant athletic program in the nation. Stanford captured its eighth straight Sears Directors’ Cup in 2001-02 with 1499 points, winning the honor by 388.5 points over second place Texas. The Cardinal won a total of four NCAA team crowns with championships in women’s tennis and women’s volleyball, as well as men’s and women’s water polo. The Cardinal added second place national finishes in men’s cross country, men’s swimming and synchronized swimming.
