Description
SDSU Assistant softball coach, Victoria Hayward joined the show to talk about the competition and what makes it special.
The excitement of Athletes Unlimited is coming to Southern California for the first time, as the new two-week AUX Softball competition will take place at San Diego State University, June 13-25. Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of Title IX and created to provide more playing opportunities and compensation to athletes and more pro softball for fans, AUX Softball (pronounced A-U-X) will feature 42 athletes playing 18 games at the SDSU Softball Stadium. All games will be broadcast live on national television in the U.S. and around the world.
Cheri Kempf, Athletes Unlimited Senior Vice President and Director of Softball, said: “We are thrilled to bring Athletes Unlimited’s unique brand of world-class professional women’s sports to Southern California for the first time with our new AUX Softball competition at San Diego State University, while also looking forward to returning to Rosemont for our third season of Athletes Unlimited Softball. As we mark the 50th anniversary of the passage of Title IX, we look forward to all the ways in which fully-empowered athletes will chart the course for the next 50 years of women’s sports and beyond.”
