The Program Committee encourages all NASSH members and others interested in sport history to think about research presentation possibilities for the convention. Abstracts may be submitted for individual papers (20 minutes) or for complete sessions (95 minutes – typically, but not necessarily, composed of 3 presenters at 20 minutes each, a commentator at 20 minutes, and discussion at 15 minutes). Proposals for complete sessions are strongly encouraged.

All submissions will be evaluated by the Program Committee according to their individual merit, contribution to the field, and potential contribution as components of the total program. The deadline for the submission of proposals is December 1, 2009. Please contact Catriona Parratt, Program Chair, with any questions at catriona-parratt@uiowa.edu or by telephone: 319-335-9339.
