    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.

  • Ohio Soccer Association North

    Ohio Soccer Association North

    OHIO SOCCER ASSOCIATION NORTH Cleveland’s first soccer league was organized in 1906 and became an American Amateur Football Association (AAFA) affiliate when the Association was formed in1912. In 1913, a dispute arose between the American Amateur Football Association and the American Football Association, which was affiliated with and subordinate to the Football Association of England. As a resolution, the AAFA became the United States Football Association. In January, 1915 the Cleveland League was superseded by the Ohio State Football Association as an affiliate of the United States Football Association. The new body merged together all the teams and leagues in Ohio and plans were announced to hold a state championship. By 1930 Cleveland had become one of the strongest soccer centers in the United States and 1931, Northeastern Ohio crowned its first National Champion, the Goodyear Wingfoots of Akron. The Wingfoots defeated the Black Cats of New Bedford, Mass., 2- 0, at Seiberling field in Akron on June 7 in the National Amateur Cup final. Soccer in Cleveland experienced a period of decline from 1933 until 1945 but underwent a ‘Period of Revival’ from 1946 to 1966 under the leadership of Colin Commander and other individuals who contributed to the game for many years. Cleveland’s growth in soccer during this period was mainly due to immigration from Central Europe, where effects of the Great War displaced millions of people. Ethnic clubs from Germany, Italy, Hungary, Poland, Ukraine, Croatia and Serbia quickly formed teams and leagues for their members on both the adult and youth levels. Their energy and the enthusiasm spread this relatively new sport to all segments of the population in the U.S.
