2007 Tucker Center Research Report Continues to Make Impact
The 2007 Tucker Center Research Report: Developing Physically Active Girls (TCRR) continues to make an impact both nationally and internationally. The TCRR is cited in the National Coaching Report (2008), released in August by the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE). The National Coaching Report is the only comprehensive document addressing both youth and interscholastic coaching education requirements in the United States. The TCRR was also featured in a presentation at the Promoting Equality in Sport - Toward Sydney 2010 Conference held in Mikkeli, Finland, last June. The presentation titled "Gender Issues and Coaching" was given by Chris Shelton from Smith College. Professor Shelton is an influential member of the International Working Group on Women and Sport (IWG).
