Strategic Plan for an Intercollegiate Athletic Program
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page paper outlining a plan to promote the "other" collegiate sports. The "big three" - football, basketball and baseball - gain most of the attention given collegiate sports, with baseball trailing at a significant distance. There are nearly two dozen other intercollegiate sports recognized and regulated by the NCAA, however, and most receive far less attention from local fans and media. Increasing budgetary constraints result in increased financial pressures on these other sports, and the five-year plan presented here addresses ways to increase community awareness of and support for these sports. The primary approach is a "grass roots" effort in which players and coaches visit local public and private schools, inviting students to attend their games. Tickets are required but will be freely given for two years, becoming more scarce in subsequent years so that competitions will be generating gate receipts and the teams will be contributing to their own financial support. Bibliography lists 13 sources.

Sudden Cardiac Death in Sports
[ send me this paper ]
(10 pp) Sudden deaths in athletes are usually caused by previously unsuspected cardiovascular disease. Such an event often assumes a high public profile because of the generally held perception that trained athletes constitute the healthiest segment of our society. The death of a well-known elite athlete often emphasizes this visibility. Athletic field catastrophes strike to the core of our sensibilities and often galvanize us. They also inevitably raise a number of practical and ethical issues. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

The Effect of Black Pro-Athletes on the Black Community
[ send me this paper ]
(11 pp.)It does not take a rocket scientist to acknowledge that sports figures do influence children, and young adults. Whenever we see one of those supposed professionals doing his own "bad-self" thing it makes most of us cringe, as the message that such an attitude gives off is usually immature and egotistical. However, there are many professional athletes who are making an effort to positively influence their home communities. According to Wilstein (1997), "at a time when sports seem maddeningly intertwined with violence, drugs, sex and arrests, a less sensational and more representative truth is often overlooked: Athletes are involved in charities and volunteer programs - working one on one with children, helping the needy, raising funds to fight diseases - more than perhaps any group in society." Bibliography lists 4 sources.
