RSVP: Join us for the "Hail Mary" Q&A on Tuesday, March 7 at 7:00 p.m. ET on zoom
Learn all about the National Women's Football League (1974-1988) with Linda Stamps, founding member of the Columbus Pacesetters, and authors Frankie de la Cretaz and Lyndsey D'Arcangelo.
HOT TIP: There’s a Columbus Pacesetters NWFL program from 1977 included in this newsletter, so don’t stop reading after the first announcement.
Hello, everyone! Next Tuesday, March 7th at 7:00 p.m. ET we are having our next Power Plays Book Club virtual event, this time for “Hail Mary: The Rise and Fall of the National Women’s Football League.”
CLICK HERE TO REGISTER. It will only take a second, I promise.
This event is open to *everyone,* but only paying Power Plays subscribers will have access to the video replay and transcript.
As you can see in the graphic above, we’ve got THREE special guests joining us this time: Frankie de la Cretaz and Lyndsey D’Arcangelo, the co-authors of the book, and Linda Stamps, a founding member of the Columbus Pacesetters!
You can read more about Stamps in this Sports Illustrated story, “How One Women’s Football Team Took Control Away From the Men.”
You can also find out more about her by scrolling below and taking a look at this original 1977 Columbus Pacesetters program. It is OOZING with gems. (If it’s hard for you to read here, there’s also a link at the bottom of the newsletter where you can download the PDF for yourself.)
It left me with lots of questions for Linda that I can’t wait to ask on Tuesday, starting with the all-star male cheerleading squad. (I need to know EVERYTHING.)
There will be an opportunity on Tuesday for you to ask Linda, Frankie, and Lyndsey questions yourself, but if you’d rather I ask them, feel free to send them ahead of time.
It’s going to be a special evening. I can’t wait.
