    W orkshop to Address Need For M o re W om en Coaches
A workshop aimed at getting more women into sports coaching will be
offered at the University of Oregon June 14-19.
The evening session of the workshop on Tuesday, June 16, will be free
and open to the public. Barbara Twardous, athletic director of the Seattle
public schools, will speak at 7:30 p.m. in the Alumni Lounge of Gerlinger
Hall, 1468 University St.
Twardous is past president of the National Interscholastic Athletic Ad­
ministrators Association.
The week-long workshop, "Women in Coaching," is for all women inter­
ested in coaching, according to workshop director Becky Sisley, head of
undergraduate studies in the UO Department of Physical Education and
Human Movement Studies. The workshop is aimed at beginning level coa­
ches, current and prospective teachers, and female athletes interested in
any sport. No athletic or coaching experience is required.
"This workshop is the cornerstone of a comprehensive project to in­
crease the number of women coaches in Oregon. It's been a real need for
a long tim e," Sisley said. "A s of 1985, only 15 percent of all head coaches
in Oregon high schools were women, and only 37 percent of the head
coaches of girl's teams were women."
The workshop, available for three university credits, is sponsored by the
Oregon Department of Education, the UO International Institute for Sport
and Human Performance and the UO Department of Physical Education
and Human Movement Studies.
Enrollment is limited to 50. Those interested in applying to attend the
workshop should immediately contact Flo DeLaney, 686-4114.
