Conducting a Successful National Girls  and Women in Sports Day Event
    Karen M. Appleby & Cynthia Lee A.  Pemberton

Abstract: National Girls  and Women in Sports Day (NGWSD) is a nationally celebrated event that promotes  sport and physical activity opportunities for girls and women. Over 1,500  events and activities are held annually in all 50 states to celebrate and  promote female participation in sport. This article introduces the sport/activity-clinic  model of the NGWSD event hosted annually at Idaho State University (ISU) and  provides planning strategies—such as volunteer recruitment and organization,  facility planning, marketing and promotion, and risk management—that can be use  to plan your own NGWSD event.
