S.L.A.M! Foundation
The Foundation division of S.L.A.M! has been developed to increase awareness of the benefits of sports among rural and urban female athletes.
Did You Know...
*In 1993, less than 5% of all female high school athletes were African-Americans? African-Americans also made up less than 10% of all female collegiate athletes, less than 2% of all coaches, and less than 1% of all sports administrators
*The practice of "stacking" restricts urban female athletes to the sports of basketball and track and field, and generally the least expensive sports
*Hispanic American female athletes' success on the playing field transfers to the classroom as well, with coaches of Hispanic heritage exerting a fey influence on this statistic
