Mount Vernon Recreation Basketball Team Wins Exhibition at New York Liberty Game Mount Vernon Youth Display Basketball Prowess on the Madison Square Garden Court Page 1 of 2 Mount Vernon Youth Display Basketball Prowess on the Madison Square Garden Court Harris, Shari Sent: Thursday, August 20, 2015 11:31 AM FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Mount Vernon Recreation Basketball Team Wins Exhibition at New York Liberty Game Mount Vernon, New York – August 14, 2015 : On Saturday, August 15 2015, the Mount Vernon Recreation (unisex) basketball team had the experience of attending a New York Liberty game. After the game the Mount Vernon team, along with the Charlottesville, Virginia Cavaliers (unisex) team, played an exhibition game on the Madison Square Garden floor. “Mount Vernon is known for producing great basketball players and these young people upheld our reputation of being fierce competitors,” said Mayor Ernest D. Davis. “To have our Recreation team win the expedition game gives us added drive to get the Mount Vernon Basketball Center on 4 th Street back in shape so that they have a place to develop their skills,” said Mayor Ernest D. Davis. There was a pre­game shoot­around before the actual New York Liberty game. The exhibition game with the Mount Vernon Recreation Basketball Team followed. The New York Liberty staff escorted Mount Vernon’s young people for the shoot­around to their seats for the game and finally, down to the floor where the game was played. As a special treat, each youth team member was given a uniform for the exhibition, access to dressing rooms, tickets and food vouchers. “We want to thank Chase Bank, the New York Knicks, Westchester Knicks, and organizers from national non­profit KaBOOM! for supporting this wonderful opportunity and memory for our children,” said Recreation Commissioner Darren M. Morton. “We’re so proud of their performance representing our city on the hardwood.” For additional information, please contact Diane Atkins, Deputy Commissioner/Mount Vernon Department of Recreation at 914.665.2316, Monday – Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. See ongoing Mount Vernon Happenings on the city’s website at www.cmvny.com . # # # https://mvexc03.ch.ci.mount-vernon.ny.us/owa/?ae=Item&t=IPM.Note&id=RgAAAAA8a... 8/20/2015 Mount Vernon Youth Display Basketball Prowess on the Madison Square Garden Court Page 2 of 2 https://mvexc03.ch.ci.mount-vernon.ny.us/owa/?ae=Item&t=IPM.Note&id=RgAAAAA8a... 8/20/2015.

  • Corporate Social Responsibility in Professional Sports: an Analysis of the NBA, NFL, and MLB
    Corporate Social Responsibility in Professional Sports: An Analysis of the NBA, NFL, and MLB Richard A. McGowan, S.J. John F. Mahon Boston College University of Maine Chestnut Hill, MA, USA Orono, Maine, USA [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an area of organizational study with the potential to dramatically change lives and improve communities across the globe. CSR is a topic with extensive research in regards to traditional corporations; yet, little has been conducted in relation to the professional sports industry. Although most researchers and professionals have accepted CSR has a necessary component in evaluating a firm‟s performance, there is a great deal of variation in how it should be applied and by whom. Professional sports franchises are particularly interesting, because unlike most corporations, their financial success depends almost entirely on community support for the team. This paper employs a mixed-methods approach for examining CSR through the lens of the professional sports industry. The study explores how three professional sports leagues, the National Basketball Association (NBA), the National Football Association (NFL), and Major League Baseball (MLB), engage in CSR activities and evaluates the factors that influence their involvement. Quantitative statistical analysis will include and qualitative interviews, polls, and surveys are the basis for the conclusions drawn. Some of the hypotheses that will be tested include: Main Research Question/Focus: How do sports franchises

    City University of New York (CUNY) CUNY Academic Works Capstones Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism Fall 12-15-2017 TWO-WAY CONTRACTS: THE SOLUTION FOR THE NBA Stefan Anderson How does access to this work benefit ou?y Let us know! More information about this work at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/gj_etds/241 Discover additional works at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu This work is made publicly available by the City University of New York (CUNY). Contact: [email protected] Luke Kornet remembers watching the 2017 NBA Draft at his home. As names were called and picks were finalized on that June evening, he knew that he wouldn’t be drafted. Then he was called by his agent. Kornet’s agent, Jim Tanner, called him with many offers but none presented the same elements as the two-way contract that the Knicks offered him. As they mulled offers the two “went through all the possible options,” said Kornet, a former Vanderbilt standout who in 2017 set the NCAA record for three-pointers made by a 7-footer. “The two-way really seemed like a good option of staying in the states and making a solid income and also staying in front of a team and hopefully end up being called up in the year.” What is a Two-Way? After the NBA and its players’ union renewed the collective bargaining agreement in January 2017, in came lots of changes. The two sides agreed on a shortened preseason, new maximum contracts for veteran players and the introduction of two-way player contracts.
