TOP STORY 1. Strategic Planning & Finance Recap   by Justin Whitaker, NCAA "At its meeting via videoconference June 24, the Division III Strategic Planning and Finance Committee approved several 2023 fiscal year budget recommendations. They await final approval by the Division III Management and Presidents Councils during their summer meetings. The committee approved recommendations made during last week's Championships Committee meeting, including per diem increases in all sports, reimbursement for local ground transportation, a day of rest for select sports, and the expansion of some brackets and travel parties. The Strategic Planning and Finance Committee also agreed to updates to the Enrichment Fund, previously known as nonchampionships initiatives, including additional funding for the Conference Grant Program to support the division's strategic initiative of diversity, equity and inclusion. The committee tasked the NCAA grant administrator to collaborate with the Division III Commissioners Association to finalize the grant parameters." >> Of Note: "Salary increases to the Division III Ethnic Minorities and Women's Internship from $23,660 to $30,000 were approved beginning Sept. 1, 2023. This increase matches Division II's raise and allows the internship to be more competitive in today's employment market." >> Worth Noting: "To reduce excess funds above the mandated reserve, the Strategic Planning and Finance Committee approved Division III to overspend its operating budget in fiscal years 2023 and 2024. With the start of the 2025 fiscal year, Division III will see an overall 11% revenue increase due to the CBS/Turner Sports broadcast agreement." >> What They're Saying: "Our main focus as a committee is meeting the needs of our student-athletes, conferences and membership while exhibiting fiscal responsibility," said Jim Schmidt, chair of the Strategic Planning and Finance Committee and chancellor at Wisconsin-Eau Claire." >> Continue Reading A MESSAGE FROM BLUEFRAME TECHNOLOGY   Did you know BlueFrame Technology has advanced integrations with top automated cameras like the Hudl Focus?

TITLE IX 2.  Kauffman Recalls Struggles for Women by Mike Gross, LNP | photo by Chris Knight "When President Richard Nixon signed Title IX into law in 1972, he didn’t know he was changing American sports. No one did. The legislation was, on its face, an almost under-the-radar provision in the Education Amendments Act. It reads: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.” There’s no mention of the participation of women or girls in sports. But the interpretation of the new code lit the fuse on a revolution in sports. It wasn’t the end of a fight, but a beginning. And it was a fight Yvonne Kauffman has been waging since she was a little girl growing up in Manheim, just wanting to play baseball and basketball and tennis and any other game that happened to be going on." >> Court Awareness: "Kauffman ended up building a life in sports, going on to coach basketball, field hockey and tennis at Elizabethtown College for a cumulative total of 89 seasons and 1,143 wins — making her one of the winningest coaches in the history of American sports." >> Reality Check: She coached (field hockey, basketball and tennis) from 1970-83. In the early years, she had no assistant coaches, and she coached the varsity and the JV. She carried a heavier course load than any other physical education teacher — Elizabethtown was 60% women, and she was the only woman in the athletic department." >> The Key Stat: "She was an active and diligent recruiter when, in small-college women’s sports, not everyone was. In the 1981-82 school year, Kauffman won the national title in hoops, reached the NCAA Final Four in field hockey, and one of her tennis players, Beckie Donecker, won the D-III singles national championship." >> Read More ALUMNI 3.  What's Next for Ryan Turell? by Jacob Gurvis, Jerusalem Post   "Yeshiva University star basketball player Ryan Turell was not selected in Thursday’s NBA Draft, putting his dream of being the first Orthodox Jewish player in the league on hold. According to ESPN, Turell is mulling his options, including a move to Israel or the NBA’s minor league organization.  Turell had been set to appear at the NBA’s G League combine in May, a scouting showcase for prospects who were not invited to the main NBA Draft event, but he sustained an injury during a workout that forced him to drop out. The injury will now keep him out of the NBA’s Summer League in Las Vegas next month as well." >> Court Awareness: "The Los Angeles native was the Division III player of the year, shooting 59% overall and 47% from three-point range, which is well above the NBA average." >> Quotable: "The 6-foot-7 guard knows he has an uphill battle. But as he told JTA back in March, he won’t be discouraged. “They just motivate me to work even harder,” he said." >> Continue Reading A MESSAGE FROM ABOVE PAR TRIPS Search through our 40+ golf resort partners to find the perfect location for your next golf trip, based on pricing, location, weather, social options, resort details, golf course details, lodging accommodations and more.    We’ve created a centralized location where golfers can search for their perfect golf trip based on their group’s specific needs – pricing, location, weather, social options.   At Above Par Trips, we hope to make your life a little easier in finding your next golf adventure.

Sports That Benefitted Most From Title IX

It’s informative to look at where the growth in women’s sports has come from on a sport-by-sport basis, and how that has changed over time. Here is total girls’ high school sports participation in four-year intervals for the dozen most popular sports of the last 20 years, according to data from the National Federation of State High School Associations: >> Worth Noting: "Maybe the most interesting bellwether of Title IX’s progress in growing women’s sports — and particularly in diversifying which sports girls have access to or see themselves playing — is basketball. As noted, it remains the third-most-popular sport to play at the high school level, with around 400,000 participants and a 12 percent share of all female high school athletes. But that share has been dropping steadily with time, from an enormous 45 percent in 1971-72 to just 23 percent a decade later, 15 percent in 2006-07 and now even less than that." >> Read More   A MESSAGE FROM BLUEFRAME TECHNOLOGY   Did you know BlueFrame Technology has advanced integrations with top automated cameras like the Hudl Focus?

Champs Committee Recap by Justin Whitaker, NCAA "Aiming to return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic operations, the Division III Championships Committee is recommending a collection of budget initiatives, including per diem increases in all sports and the expansion of some brackets and travel parties. At its meeting Monday and Tuesday at the NCAA national office in Indianapolis, the committee recommended the Strategic Planning and Finance Committee approve funding Friday for the initiatives. Among the recommended initiatives, the committee backed an increase to the per diem for all sports from $100 to $115 and an increase to the host per diem from $40 to $50. >> Notable: "Sport committees generally feel that the current bench limits are adequate, but feedback has consistently shown that the student-athlete experience is negatively impacted when teams reach the NCAA championships and some student-athletes are not allowed to be in uniform on the bench with the team. As a result, the committee made a recommendation to the Division III Management Council to allow all student-athletes permitted in the bench area to be in uniform and to participate in warmups. The current bench size, squad size and travel party limits will remain unchanged." >> Continue Reading RULES 3. Track & Field Rules Committee Recap "The Men's and Women's Track and Field Rules Committee during its in-person meeting this week in Indianapolis recommended participants have one minute to initiate their attempt in field events, beginning with the 2022-23 academic year. The new proposal for field event athletes to initiate their trial within one minute after their name is called would put NCAA rules in line with World Athletics rules. Currently, field athletes have 30 seconds to initiate their trial. Elsewhere ...  Committee members proposed that officials may use video review, if available, in all field events, beginning with the 2022-23 academic year, to see whether an infraction or violation occurred.   The committee recommended eliminating mixed-gender competitions.

A third devoted to transactions! >> Thanks for reading D3Playbook. Is your staff reading D3Playbook? Share the love and the info.   Send me D3Playbook! TOP STORY 1. Hartford Joins CCC by Shreyas Laddha, Hartford Courant  "The University of Hartford will join the Division III Commonwealth Coast Conference at the start of the 2023-24 academic year, the school announced Tuesday. Hartford has been searching for an athletic home since the decision was made to drop down from Division I to Division III in the spring of 2021. The Hawks will become the 11th member of the CCC, which includes schools in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Maine. The transition to the CCC conference comes after the NCAA approved UHart’s move from Division I in March. Hartford approached the conference initially. “It was almost like a mutual occurrence,” Hartford Athletic Director Sharon Beverly told The Courant. “We had been thinking about the CCC, we just weren’t sure where they were on adding another institution. We reached out and they were amiable to having a discussion." >> Field Awareness: "Hartford currently offers 17 sports and hopes to add tennis, field hockey and ice hockey in the future. There is also an esports program and plans to construct a new track and field facility in 2023." >> What They're Saying: “Kudos to (CCC Commissioner) Gregg Kaye for seeing all the positives that [we] as a conference institution,” Beverly said. “Some of the conferences we were looking at could only see negatives. We didn’t feel we were bringing negatives. We were bringing positives. We were fully committed to the Division III philosophy and the goals of Division III.” >> Geography Lesson: "Hartford joins the conference, founded in 1984, that includes Roger Williams and Salve Regina in Rhode Island; Western New England, Nichols, Wentworth, Curry, Endicott, Suffolk and Gordon in Massachusetts; and the University of New England in Biddeford, Maine." >> Continue Reading >> CCC Release >> Hartford Release A MESSAGE FROM BLUEFRAME TECHNOLOGY   Did you know BlueFrame Technology has advanced integrations with top automated cameras like the Hudl Focus?

Kelly Cline will join the Eagles staff this season as a student assistant coach working with linebackers, the team announced on May 23. The sports management major came to UW-L with no prior football experience, but just a few years later, Cline hopes her first coaching gig helps launch her toward a dream job. “My end goal is to scout for the NFL,” Cline said. “This coaching will really boost my confidence, and I want to understand the game deeper.” >> Situational Awareness: "Cline is slowly adapting to coaching, expecting to slowly get into the process of learning plays, breaking down film and running practice drills. The job is a huge jump from her other sports experiences as a marketing intern, previously for the Durham Bulls and currently with the Madison Mallards." >> What They're Saying: “Kelly has been a big piece of our program the last few years,” head coach Matt Janus said. “She did a fantastic job with our film and that side of things. From the standpoint of what she wanted to do, we had that conversation. Kelly said she wanted to get into scouting and that side of things. We moved from there with the mindset of figuring out how she could help us and how we could help her.” >> Quotable: “I definitely in the future want more of an on-field role instead of in the office,” Cline said. “I’m very hands on in my learning style. I love marketing, it’s fun for a creative person like me. It’s definitely one of my passions, but coaching is going to give me this experience.” >> Keep Reading A MESSAGE FROM ABOVE PAR TRIPS Search through our 40+ golf resort partners to find the perfect location for your next golf trip, based on pricing, location, weather, social options, resort details, golf course details, lodging accommodations and more.    We’ve created a centralized location where golfers can search for their perfect golf trip based on their group’s specific needs – pricing, location, weather, social options.   At Above Par Trips, we hope to make your life a little easier in finding your next golf adventure.

RULES 4.  Water Polo Rules Recap "The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel during a virtual call Tuesday approved reducing the shot clock in women's water polo to 30 seconds for the 2022-23 academic year. Previously, the shot clock was 35 seconds. The Men's and Women's Water Polo Rules Subcommittee, which proposed the change, thinks a reduction in the women's shot clock will reduce the holding and grabbing that occurs while the ball is in play. The panel also approved a change to the penalty for simulation." >> Read More NEWS 5.  Lightning Round    News Average full-time faculty salaries decreased by 5 percent in the 2021-22 academic year when adjusted for inflation, the largest single-year drop in the 50 years that the American Association of University Professors has tracked academic wages.    Happy Birthday Cake and candles to Amy Reifert, head soccer coach at Chicago.
