ABSTRACT The Community College Coach: Leadership Practices and Athlete Satisfaction Community college coaches and athletes completed the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI), to assess the leader­ ship practices of coaches of various sports. Soccer coaches and their athletes were also surveyed to assess the impact of the congruence of leadership practices ratings upon athlete satisfaction. Two samples were taken from Spring and Fall, 1998 sports: (a) 225 full-time head coaches of team sports in which there was a male and female equivalent in California's community colleges, and (b) 280 men's and women's soccer athletes.

  • Framing Student-Athlete Compensation: a Thematic Analysis of California Senate Bill 206
    Framing Student-Athlete Compensation: A Thematic Analysis of California Senate Bill 206 Jocelyn Irene Hotter Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Communication Chelsea L. Woods, Chair Marcus C. Myers Nneka J. Logan May 7, 2020 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: NCAA, Compensation, Framing, California Senate Bill 206 Framing Student-Athlete Compensation: A Thematic Analysis of California Senate Bill 206 Jocelyn Irene Hotter ACADEMIC ABSTRACT The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has controlled intercollegiate sports for the past 150 years, but the passing of California Senate Bill 206 on September 30, 2019, placed that power at risk. The bill will allow student-athletes to receive compensation for their name, image and likeness in the state of California, and has influenced other states to bring forth legislation of their own. The NCAA announced on October 29, 2019, that it would change its policies and bylaws to allow student-athletes to profit from their name, image and likeness. This qualitative thematic analysis seeks to discover how the issue of student-athletes in the case of SB 206 was framed by the media before and after the bill was passed, and after the NCAA announced its policy change. From the analysis, three themes emerged to support student-athlete compensation, eight themes emerged in opposition, and 24 sub themes emerged for both sides. Anti-compensation framing strategies prevailed throughout news coverage before and after SB 206 passed, and after the NCAA changed its policy. Local and mainstream news outlets and sports and mainstream news outlets all presented the eight themes.

As the Munich Memorial Project progressed, it became clear to us a story of healing and justice lay at the center of this effort to remember the slain Israeli athletes and coaches from the ‘72 Summer Olympics in Munich. We formed a team of filmmakers and traveled to Europe to interview the widows and children of the Israeli athletes. Their stories of grief, longing for justice, and dedication to honoring the lives of their killed loved ones are both difficult and important to hear. These stories are also the basis of our new short documentary titled, “Munich ’72 and Beyond.” Stay tuned to see this documentary in the coming months. 2015 was also year of strengthening connections with our many grant recipients, such as the World Curling Federation and the International Paralympic Committee. We were happy to join these groups as sponsors of events such as the Olympic Celebration Tour and the 2015 Ice Sledge Hockey World Championships in Buffalo.

    Athletics Statement of Philosophy Girls learn much more than mere physical skills through their participation in athletics as they benefit from the values of discipline, dedication, selflessness and hard work derived from team participation. The collaborative experience of pursuing and attaining a common goal in athletics is unique as it is combined with interscholastic competition. Through this experience girls are able to develop courage as they take risks, strength while displaying finesse, competitive intensity while exhibiting generosity of spirit, and mental as well as physical endurance. While the focus is to facilitate the development of each girl’s athletic potential, the greater hope is to instill motivation to continue in life- long physical activity. Tigers’ Steps to Success • Facilitate each girl in becoming a better athlete and player of a given sport by maximizing her individual learning and creating opportunities for successful contributions to the team in a safe environment. • Increase self-awareness, self-efficacy and self-confidence through athletic participation. • Have each athlete learn to be her best self both in winning and in losing. • Understand and act in accordance with being totally committed to the team and to be an exemplary representative of the school. • Learn to work collaboratively and effectively with others. • Guide each girl to find her voice as a leader of her peers. • Find a love for movement activities and to instill intrinsic motivation to continue physical activity throughout one’s lifetime. Westridge Sports The Westridge Athletics program offers 12 sports and oversees student involvement in Equestrian through the Interscholastic Equestrian League (IEL) and the Saddle Seat and Western School League.
