INTRODUCTIONHISTORY.......
The substantial growth of women's intercol-legiate athletics in the late 1960s wastriggered in large measure by the StudyConference on Competition held in 1965 inWashington, D.C. One result of this con-ference, Cuidelines for IntercollegiateAthletic Programe for Women, facilitated thedevelopment of sound athletic programs inindividual institutions. However, thedissolution of the National Joint Committeeon Extramural Sports for College Women leftno focal organization for coordination anddirection of intercollegiate athleticsexcept DGWS.4 Since no existing area ofDGWS seemed appropriate to assume this role,in 1967 the Commission on intercollegiateAthletics for Women (CIAW) was formed to ac-complish the following functions:
1. Encourage organization of colleges anduniversities and/or organizations ofwomen physical educators to governintercollegiate competition for womenat the local, state, or regional level.
2. Hold DGWS national championships as theneed for them becomes apparent.
In the succeeding years CIAW made progressin meeting these objectives. Women's sportsgoverning groups now exist in all regionsand in most states. Seven national cham-pionships have been conduced annuallyduring the last few years.
The Association for Intercollegiate Athleticsfor Women (AIAW) was organized In 1971-72 toreplace CIAW. It provides a governing bodyand leadership for initiating and main-taining standards of excellence in women'sintercollegiate athletic programs.
Effective June 1, 1974, DGWS shall beknown as The National Association forGirls and Women in Sport (NAGWS).
S
In 1973 AIAW sponsored the first NatiohllInvitational Junior/Community College Bas-ketball Championship. In 1973-74 the fir-aAIAt National Junior/Community CollegeChampionships were conducted in volleyball,basketball. and golf. This makes 10 AIAWnational championships held annually inseven different sports.
Colleges and universities should indicatetheir active support by membership in /UAW(1) if they subscribe to the belief that thefocus of women's intercollegiate athleticsshould remain on the individual participantin her primary role as a college student,and (2) if they support the policies underwhich such programs have been conducted byDGWS (NAGWS), CIAW, and AIAW.
STRUCTURE
The Association for Intercollegiate Athleticsfor Women will continue to gw!de AIAW nation-al championships; give assistance to re-gional and local governing groups; andImplement at the national level, and en-courage at the local level, the use ofpolicies established by AIAW.
Officers of AIAW elected by member itstitu-tions include: president-elect, commis-sioner of Junior /community college nationalchampionships, commissioner of nationalchampionships, Ethics and Eligibility Chair-person, and treasurer. in addition, onerepresentative is elected from each of thenine regions by member schools from thatregion; and a Junior/community collegerepresentative is elected by junior/commu-nity college member schools only. Candi-dates must be faculty members at activemember institutions. The president-electserves one year in that position, one yearas president, and one year as past presi-dent. All other officers serve for twoyears.

ASSOCIATION FOR INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS FOR WOMEN
POSITION PAPER ON INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS FOR WOMEN
Approved May 1974
We believe sport is an important aspect of our culture and a fertile field forlearning. The sense of enjoyment, self confidence and physical well beingderived from demanding one's best performance in a sport situation is a mean-ingful experience for the athlete. These inner satisfactions are the fundamentalmotivation for participation in sports. Therefore, programs in an educationalsetting should have these benefits as primary goals.
In keeping with, this belief, the following program elements are vitally important:
1. The enrichment of the life of the participant is the focus and reason forthe existence of any athletic program. All decisions should be made withthis fact in mind.
2. The participants in athletic programs, including players, coaches, andsupport personnel, should have access to and representation on the policymaking group on campus and in sport governing organizations.
3. Adequate funding is necessary to provide a comprehensive program. Suffi-cient funds should be provided for (a) a broad spectrum of sports experiences;(b) a variety of levels of competitive experiences; (c) travel using licensedcarriers; (d) appropriate housing and food; (e) rated officials; (f) welltrained coaches; (q) equipment, supplies, and facilities which aid performanceand appeal to the aesthetic aspects of sport; (h) competent staff for adminis-tering and publicizing the program; (i) qualified medical and training person-nell; (j) and regular opportunities for social interaction with opponents.
4. Careful consideration is needed for scheduling practice sessions and games.The athletic schedule should ensure sufficient time to gain personal satis-faction from skill achievement, but should not deny the student the time toparticipate in other activities. Factors to be considered include: (a) equi-table competition on all levels; (b) adequate pre-season conditioning; (c) ap-propriate spacing and length of practice sessions; (d) sufficient number ofevents in each sport; and (e) comparable length of seasons between sports.
5. Separate but comparable teams should be provided for women and men. In ad-dition to separate teams, intercollegiate co-educational teams comprised ofan equal number of women and men competing on opposing teams are desirablein those sports in which such teams are appropriate.
6. Athletic ability is one of the talents which can be considered in the award-ing of financial aid to students. However, students should be free to choosethelnstitution on the basis of curriculum and program. Staff time and effortshould be devoted to the comprehensive program rather than to recruitingefforts.

ASSOCIATION FOR INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS FOR WOMEN
POSITION STATEMENT
WOMEN ON MEN'S TEAMS
AIAW and the National Association for Girls and Women in Sport subscribe to thebelief that teams for girls and women should be provided for all girls and womenwho desire competitive athletic experiences. While positive experiences for theexceptional girl or woman competitor may occur through participation in boys ormen's competitive groups, these instances are are and should be judged acceptableonly as an interim procedure for use until women's programs can be initiated.

APPENDIX
A. DEVELOPMENT OF LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS
As opportunities for quality competi-tive experiences for college womencontinue to develop, the need for es-tablishing policies and procedures atthe local level also grows. Many col-leges and universities have formedlocal organizations to direct thegrowth of athletics for women in theirarea, to establish policies of opera-tion for scheduling contests, and todeal with problems as they arise.
Other groups considering the desira-bility of establishing a governingorganization might find the followingsuggestions helpful:
1. Meet with representatives of in-stitutions in your area to dis-cuss needs, purposes, and possi-ble directions. Such a meetingcould be held in conjunction withanother scheduled meeting.
2. Obtain materials from comparablegroups already organized eitherby writing directly to organi-zations or to the regional re-presentative.
3. Select a committee to write aflexible operating code.
4. Determine what financial struc-ture, if any, is most desirablefor your area.
Many areas with traditional competi-tive boundaries have been able tofunction effectively without a formalstructure. No pressure for the devel-opment of such a local organizationshould be felt by institutions untilan organization becomes necessary toexert guidance and control at thelocal level. Further information canbe obtained from the regional repre-sentative or from the president-elect.
58
B. PROCEDURES FOR CHANGING REGIONS
Schools bordering on another regionmay wish to petition for a change ofregional assignment. This assign-ment would be effective for all sportsfor that school. Such a relocation,if made, would be for a minimum of athree-year period. Procedures forrequesting a relocation would involvethe following:

Carbon copies of thisletter are to be sent to the re-gional representative of the re-gion currently assigned and tothe AIAW national office. If
Joining a state association orother governing group is a pre-requisite, approval to do so musthave been received prior to peti-tioning for change in regionalaffiliation.
2. This petition shall be acted uponby the regional governing group.
3. The decision of the regionalgoverning group is to be sent tothe school Involved. Carboncopies of this decision are to besent to the state or other govern--ing groups involved, the regionalrepresentative of the region towhich the school was originallyassigned, and to the AIAW nationaloffice.
