Definitely, I was dismayed when the first two issues of my subscription to
Women's Sports and Fitness had ads for Bacardi Rum, and one of them showed the
woman smoking a cigar! I wrote them and though I didn't get a response I did
end up being called for a survey about their magazine and I was very emphatic
about my objections to it. The person doing the survey said that most of the
people she had called had strongly objected to it, and I have noticed the ad
is no longer in the magazine.
We do have to be willing to put up with stupid stuff in most magazines I
suppose, Though I am pretty disgusted that SI for women has sports horoscopes!
Even magazines that claim they want to free women from stereotypes like Mode,
Jump and Girl have horoscopes. As a thinking person I object to them, but
also wonder why that aspect of "spirituality" is included but most others are
excluded.
Basically magazines make me wonder just how stupid and shallow the producers
of magazines think we are! Except of course the producers of that wonderful
hockey magazine for women----HipCheck. Even though I am not involved enough
in the hockey world to understand or relate to all of it, it is refreshing and
interesting.
(and yes I would happily take a free subscription for that plug!)

If it were not for the discovery of a good sports bra, I would
just be sitting at the computer all the time instead of taking
time out to be physically active. I used to be just a bookworm/

re: women's sports magazines
Actually, before Conde Nast bought "Women's Sports and Fitness", it was a
serious women's sports magazine. I would hate to have just resubscribed
long term to the magazine when it was bought out--one month they're
publishing articles about training for long-distance running, orienteering,
sports nutrition, and the like, and the next month there's an article about
two women who dressed up as "golf ho's" (I'm not kidding) to see if they
could pick up a rich guy at a professional golf tournament.
I'd been reading the magazine for about four years before it was bought
out--they just couldn't maintain a large enough subscriber base. If the
people on this list (who I'd suspect would be looking for women's sports
magazines) never found the magazine on the rack, it doesn't sound like they
were ever able to get exposure they needed (self-fulfilling prophecy--the
chains won't give you exposure unless you're either a big publisher or show
big numbers. You can't get big numbers unless you're either with a big
publisher or get bit exposure...).

For a great women's sports magazine, check out http://www.real-sports.com.
This is the online home of Amy Love's REAL SPORTS, which just launched this
year. It's a dream come true: intelligent coverage of athletes and teams,
great photography, interviews with coaches, profiles of grassroots
programs, etc. Check out their site and order a sample issue -- and write
to ask for more women's hockey coverage!

What country do you live in? In Canada, you cannot. The CHA (national
governing body for hockey) has charitable organization status and can give
tax receipts, but it is not possible for any other organization which
belongs to a CHA branch to get this status.

That's why I make a big effort to support the women's hockey magazines
that have started out. The first one didn't last a year before being
reabsorbed back into the parent hockey magazine and getting maybe 2 pages
of coverage (not sure of the actual details of the business end), but
some of the staff went on to form Hipcheck magazine, and I highly
reccomend everyone get a subscription so that it can last long enough to
get a big following. For info on hipcheck, see

Do you know the name of the parent magazine ? Is it still
published?

Subject: ECAC Championship weekend
For girls'/womens' hockey folks in the Atlantic NorthEast,
This weekend is the ECAC Division I championship weekend at Brown
University. For more information, check out this page on the web:
http://hockey.ecac.com/curpr/w1
Looks like it is going to be a great weekend of fun and super women's
college hockey. Given that we don't have a professional league yet, this
is probably about the best women's hockey you are likely to be able to see.
AND the ECAC is sponsoring a FREE hockey clinic at the Brown U arena on
Sunday morning at 8 AM--called the YES clinic, should be a lot of fun and a
chance to learn some skills from some of the best women's ice hockey
coaches in the country.
See information below lifted from the page at the address above:
ECAC to Host Youth Clinic
The 1999 NCAA women's ice hockey YES Clinic will take place in conjunction
with the ECAC Women's
Division I Championship at Brown. The free clinic will take place on
Sunday, March 21 at 8 a.m.
Registration is required, and an application can be received by calling the
ECAC at 508-771-5060 ext 222.
Participants will receive a free ticket to the championship game at 3 p.m.
We are planning to do this as a family weekend excursion trip by Amtrak
from Philadelphia. No rooms were available at this time at the host
hotel, Sheraton Providence Airport, but was able to get a room at the
Providence Marriott. Looking forward to a great time and hope to be able
to see some of y'all there!
Best,

Subject: Call for off-ice volunteers for Women's Sr Nationals
The USA Hockey Women's A and B National Championship games will be played
at the ARC Rockville Twin Rinks in Rockville, MD April 8-11. The host
club is the Washington Little Capitals, which is a youth club, and is
also hosting the Tier I Girls U19, U15 and U12, and the Tier I Boys
Peewee and Midget games during this same time frame. They have asked me
to contact women hockey players and ask for volunteers for the Sr Women's
games.
Four volunteers are needed for each game: clock, score and man the
penalty boxes.
This is a great opportunity to show how strong women's hockey is in the
Washington, DC area, and also a fantastic opportunity to see the best
women's hockey in the country. I am sure some of the A teams will have
Olympic players rostered.
If you have already responded, I have your names, don't worry! If you
want to work definate games or time though, please let me know what they
are.
The schedules of games is -
