  • Marketing of Professional Women's Soccer in the United States
    MARKETING OF PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S SOCCER IN THE UNITED STATES THROUGH FEMINIST THEORIES by CHRISTOPHER HENDERSON (Under the Direction of James J. Zhang) ABSTRACT Despite the success of the United States Women’s National Team (USWNT), two women’s soccer leagues have quickly failed in the U.S. This doctoral dissertation examines the past and present of the marketing of professional women’s soccer in the United States emphasizing feminist themes to fulfill three objectives: (a) to critically examine the history of the marketing of women’s soccer in the United States to identify and gain a better comprehension of changes in theory and practice of marketing in women’s soccer in the U.S. over time; (b) to identify and explain the use of three feminist themes in the marketing of women’s soccer, specifically in the NWSL; and (c) to analyze the impact of these three feminist themes on the related marketing strategies used within in the NWSL in an effort to build a framework while also developing recommendations for marketing practitioners for the promotion and marketing of professional women’s soccer in the United States. The historical analysis segment revealed that the failure of the first two professional women’s soccer leagues in the United States were largely a result of poor resource allocation and an inability to connect with and retain fans, the media, and sponsors. The Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA) burned through capital at an unsustainable rate and was unable to maintain the excitement of the 1999 Women’s World Cup, leading to microscopic television ratings and perennially falling attendance.

  • Malaysia America Soccer Exchange Program
    Malaysia America Soccer Exchange Program The 2009-2010 Malaysia America Soccer Exchange Program, led by The International Center’s Sports Corp Division, in partnership with the Football Association of Malaysia and its affiliated football departments at the State level, served to strengthen relationships between the two countries through the sport of women’s soccer. This exchange program was made possible by a grant from the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational & Cultural Affairs and brought U.S. and Malaysia citizens together in the spirit of sport, camaraderie, and team building, while supporting efforts to strengthen the overall bilateral relations with Malaysia. The Malaysia America Soccer Exchange Program consisted of two main components. The first component included sending four American soccer coaches to share the United States Soccer Federation’s latest coaching methods including “US Best Practices” and its “E” license manual to youth players and instruct local coaches in the Malaysia cities of Kuala Lumpur, Kuatun, and Sabah. The American Coaches included Janine Szpara, a US “A” Level License coach, top Oregon youth club and NCAA coach, plus former US National Team, WUSA, and NCAA All-American player; Joy Boswell, a top Oregon Youth coach and former University of Portland Final Four player; Anna Short, a top Northern California High School coach and former Academic All American NCAA player; and Karen Willoughby, an Oregon youth club coach and former NCAA All American player who also serves as the International Center’s Sports Corps Program Director. Malaysia currently enjoys a strong passion and interest in football on the men’s side, but the women’s side has struggled in recent times with no organized activity at the National or State level for its youth or women’s players.

    Collector’s Edition ® e-Zine The Authority in Women’s Sports™ 10th Annual Most Important Moments in Sports 2010 Real Sports Top 10 Most Important Moments in Sports and Sports Person of the Year 10th annual edition 10 Media Firestorm edia coverage of women’s sports and athletes remains a point of contention for Mathletes, coaches, fans and investors in women’s sports. Coach Geno Auriemma created discussion in media outlets across the country when he said interest in his Connecticut basketball team’s record-setting win streak garnered the attention it did only because it was breaking a men’s record. Many sports writers called his comments out of bounds. However, coverage of women’s sports remains miniscule relative to men’s. Part of the reason rests squarely with the perceptions of media editors. According to the Women’s Sports Foundation, “The results of a survey of 285 newspapers found that nearly 25 percent of editors agrees with the statement, ‘Women are naturally less athletic than are men.’ ” Part of the reason also rests with the inability of women’s sports promoters to secure consistent ©2010 UConn – STEVE SLADE fan support, UConn’s run-up to, and surpassing of, UCLA’s consecutive-game winning streak which would drew significant national media coverage. The debate continues regarding media demonstrate a coverage – with some saying if more women’s sports teams filled the stands like critical mass UConn does the issue of media coverage would subside, while others point to without media coverage how do you fill the stands. of interest.
