Table of Contents 2012 Highlights - Old Dominion Athletic Foundation
New Conference. New Era. With our announcement last spring that we would be joining Conference USA in 2013, the level of competition and our national visibility have risen tremendously. 2013 marks a new era for the Monarchs. While we are very excited for this transition to the next level, we are also cognizant of what is to be expected from all of us associated with Old Dominion University. Our general premise is let’s collectively give a Championship Effort every day and the desired lofty academic and athletic results will be achieved. So how did we do in 2012? Once again our student-athletes did a masterful job in the classroom as over half earned a 3.0 GPA or higher last semester and almost 5% of all ODU student-athletes earned a perfect 4.0! Between the spring and winter commencements, 89 Monarch student-athletes walked across the stage to accept their degrees. Our student-athletes remain committed to challenging themselves in the classroom, as we continue to graduate over 91% of our student-athletes who exhaust their eligibility. There was also a tremendous Championship Effort given last year by all of you. Our ODAF members and athletic supporters helped us achieve our goal, and a record setting philanthropic year with annual giving exceeding $3.39 million and membership hitting an all-time high of 2,883 donors.

This certainly is an ambitious fundraising goal, but one that we simply must accomplish if we desire to remain nationally competitive and relevant across all 18 intercollegiate athletic programs. Year two of our strategic plan had us right on track with an 11% increase in annual giving. Please help us keep pace in 2013 by renewing your ODAF membership, joining the 110% club, and helping us attract new ODAF members. This brochure contains your ODAF giving history and personalized pledge card found on the back inside cover. Our best days institutionally and athletically are still ahead. Help us maximize our potential by supporting the ODAF and our 454 studentathletes who represent ODU so well each and every day with their Championship Effort. Thank you for your contributions to our success. GO MONARCHS!!! Dr. Camden Wood Selig Athletic Director Table of Contents ODAF Mission............................................... 4 Collectively, private giving to the ODAF exceeded $6.5 million in 2012. We are also more than half way towards our fundraising goal to construct a new, state of the art, men’s and women’s basketball practice facility. 2012 Highlights NCAA Appearances Winter 2012: Wrestling (7 individuals) Spring 2012: Swimming and Diving (2 individuals) Fall 2012: Field Hockey, Men’s Soccer, and Football Overall Ranking 31st out of 277 total teams in the Learfield Cup standings as of January, 2013 Graduates May 2012: 69 Graduates Dec. 2012: 20 Graduates Awards Taylor Heinicke 2012 Walter Payton Award Winner 2012 Dudley Award Winner Coach Bobby Wilder 2012 American Football Monthly Coach of the Year Achievements 11 Athletic All-Americans 6 National Academic All-Americans 5 2012 London Olympic appearances Sailing (2), Swimming (2), Field Hockey (1) Championship Ring Donation................21 Power of One..............................................22 2013 Dates to Remember.......................23 Where do I rank?........................................24 757.683.6963 www.OldDominionAF.com 1 Mark Benson NEW CONFERENCE, NEW ERA Senior Associate Athletic Director 12th Year at ODU 757.683.6963 [email protected] Jena Virga MEET THE ODAF TEAM Director of Major Gifts, ODAF 5th Year at ODU 757.683.6962 New Conference In May of 2012 it was announced that the Monarchs would be leaving their longtime conference home in the Colonial Athletic Association to join Conference USA on July 1, 2013. This move was designed to not only elevate the competition of all of our sports, but was also a move to greatly enhance ODU’s national visibility. This transition also includes elevating our football program from the FCS to the FBS level, making ODU football one of three universities in the state of Virginia to compete at this level. While CUSA will challenge us against a higher playing field, we remain committed to continue playing our in-state rivalries. [email protected] Justin Jannuzzi Director, ODAF 3rd Year at ODU 757.683.4824 [email protected] New Era Casey Cegles A new era for the Monarchs begins in 2013, with the bar set at an all-time high for our student athletes, programs and University. With these changes surrounding ODU Athletics and the excitement from another great year from all of our teams, the time is now to elevate your financial support and help us move to the next level. The ODAF needs you as ODU Athletics transitions into a new era. Assistant Director, ODAF 1st Year at ODU 757.683.6964 [email protected] Kelly Disharoon Special Events Coordinator 6th Year at ODU 757.683.6961 2 [email protected] Old Dominion Athletic Foundation 4417 Monarch Way • Norfolk, VA 23529 Phone: 757-683-6963 • Fax: 757-683-5221 www.OldDominionAF.com Follow us on Twitter - @OldDominionAF 3 MISSION GOALS Mission of the ODAF Drive for 35 The ODAF is integral to the success of Old Dominion University Athletics, and is the channel through which our fans and alumni can partner with our coaches and student-athletes for the advancement of the athletics program. Annual Fund With the ever-increasing cost of competing at the Division I level, a dynamic donor base is critical to putting the strongest possible teams on the field and court. The mission of the ODAF is to raise financial support for Old Dominion University Athletics and to ensure that our coaches and studentathletes have everything they need to compete for national championships. Expand our donor base to 3,500 by 2014. Increase our Annual Fund by 10% on a yearly basis. Major Gift Increase our major gifts by 10% on a yearly basis. Premium Seats Increase our premium seat revenue by 10% on a yearly basis. Conference USA Campaign Raise $5 million in 5 years toward our transition to CUSA. Basketball Practice Facility Reach our goal of privately funding the new basketball practice facility. Members of the ODAF also enjoy the satisfaction of knowing their gifts are investments in the lives of our student-athletes, providing the academic foundation and character building traits learned through a collegiate athletic experience. Sidni Hoxha Senior from Tirane, Albania Olympic Swimmer Maeghan Pardy Senior Women’s Rowing from Ontario, Canada 2012 ODAF Endowed Scholarship Luncheon speaker “I decided to come to ODU because they trusted me and gave me a chance to compete in America. ODU took a risk with me and I am very grateful for the opportunity. I have had a great experience in a college in America and most of all at ODU.” “I chose ODU because it’s where I felt the greatest sense of belonging. I was excited about the new rowing program and getting to be part of the development of this team under the direction of incredible coaches seemed like an amazing opportunity. 4 The past four years have been filled with wonderful people - coaches and teammates, professors and classmates - who have created a home away from home.” 757.683.6963 www.OldDominionAF.com 5 FOOTBALL RESEATING Why we are reseating The Plan Fairness Seat Selection Process ODU football has some of the greatest fans in the country, as evidenced by your voices in the stands, travel to away games, and financial support to the ODAF. In return, your generous support deserves equitable seating in S.B. Ballard Stadium. With the tremendous increase in ODAF supporters and the demand for season tickets, the priority seating plan rewards longtime supporters and encourages current contributions to the ODAF. Loyalty The ODAF priority points system rewards annual season ticket purchases, cumulative season ticket purchases, annual contributions, cumulative contributions, and referrals. Donor and season ticket loyalty are the two primary components of the priority seating program designed to reward our most loyal fans. Recognition As the costs of scholarships, facility expenses, and operational budgets increase with the move to a new conference with greater national exposure and the move to FBS football, flexible and increased funding is needed. ODAF members continually step forward to help meet these financial challenges and deserve to be rewarded for their investment. By reseating, the ODAF is recognizing members and season ticket patrons support on many levels. As originally planned and communicated in 2009, the ODAF will be reseating S.B. Ballard Stadium in May of 2013 to provide everyone a fair and equitable opportunity to receive the best seats possible. Seats will be allocated utilizing the ODAF Priority Points System outlined on page 15 of this brochure. For instance, the donor with the most priority points would receive the first appointment time to select their seats, followed by all other donors in ranked order. Any remaining season ticket applications purchased by non-ODAF members will be assigned by the Athletic Ticket Office in priority rank order. In the event that there are more season ticket applications than available season tickets, unfulfilled orders will be issued a refund for the season ticket price and placed on the waiting list. Wait list members will receive the first opportunity to purchase individual game tickets before they are made available to the general public. For those wanting to select seats with a group, the group must select seats with the donor who has the lowest amount of priority points. Groups are encouraged to contact the ODAF before the reseating process begins. You must be an active ODAF member to retain football seats through the next football seating cycle. Whether you are a current ODAF member, season ticket holder, alumnus, member of our football season ticket waiting list, or just a big fan of ODU football, the time is now to become an ODAF member and improve your chances of receiving football season tickets. Important Reseating Dates February ODAF and Football season ticket renewals mailed 6 757.683.6963 www.OldDominionAF.com April 15 Deadline to purchase football season tickets Deadline to make ODAF pledge (50% paid off) April 29 Reseating appointment times will be mailed out Mid-May Reseating appointment times will begin June Reseating appointment times conclude August 1 Deadline to have ODAF pledge paid in full (Football season tickets/parking will not be mailed until paid in full) Important Football Reseating Information • 11,364 of our 14,134 football season tickets were tied to an ODAF gift in 2012. • The ODAF has over 2,800 donors and the average donation in 2012 was $1,179. • The football season ticket waitlist has over 4,500 people. • The ODAF will factor your entire 2013 pledge (April 15th deadline, 100% pledge, 50% payment due) into your ranking. • The more priority points one has earned, the better their chances are of receiving an appointment time to select seats. Please view page 15 for more information on our priority point system. • ODAF members will only be able to select the number of priority seats they are eligible for at the level they donate. Please see our Annual Donor Benefits Chart on page 14. • If tickets outside of one’s priority are available after reseating, they will be assigned by the Ticket Office in the best available seats based on priority. • To be eligible for premium sideline seats one must donate at the Blue Baron level ($1,000) or higher. • Football seats in premium seating areas (i.e. Loge Level and Luxury Suites) are not subject to the selection process unless you also purchase season tickets located in priority seating. You will then be designated an appointment time to select those seats. • In years where no selection process occurs, members will maintain their seat assignments as long as their giving level does not decrease. If a member does decrease their giving level, the appropriate number of seats will be reassigned based on our annual donor benefits chart (page 14). • Detailed information regarding the selection process, including one’s appointment time, will be mailed out prior to May 1st. • Appointment times will begin in mid-May and occur between 10am and 8pm. • Appointment times are scheduled every three minutes. • Seats can be selected online, over the phone, or by visiting the Barry Kornblau Alumni Center located on campus at the corner of Hampton Blvd. & 49th Street. • If one does not select seats within 30 minutes of their appointment time, the ODAF will pick for them unless otherwise advised. • Football reseating forums will be held prior to the reseating process. Details on these events will be sent out at a later date. • Due to the unknown number of season tickets that will be sold by the donation deadline, there are no guarantees for an appointment time. • To purchase football season tickets go to www.coxtix.com and click on FOOTBALL SEASON TICKETS. 757.683.6963 www.OldDominionAF.com 7 FAQ Taylor Heinicke Sophomore Quarterback from Atlanta, GA. Walter Payton Award Winner Dudley Award Winner “ODU was the only offer I had out of high school. I loved the coaches, facilities and it was close to the beach.” My experience’s at ODU have meant a lot, from the fan support, to the success we have had on and off the field. I am so glad I came here.” Q: How are appointment times determined for reseating? Q: Will Loge seat holders be assigned an appointment time to selects seats? A: Appointment times for reseating are only assigned to current ODAF members and are based on priority point rankings as of April 15, 2013. The donor with the most priority points selects first, followed by all ODAF members in rank order. A: No. The seats located in the Loge area are premium seats purchased on a contractual agreement. You will only be designated an appointment time if you also purchased regular season tickets located in priority seating. Q: I’ve purchased season tickets in the past and want to buy more in 2013. Is this possible? Q: Will I be able to change seat locations in 2014? A: Yes, but your giving level may have to increase in order to choose seats on priority, and you must do so by the April 15th deadline. Please see the ODAF Annual Donor Benefits Chart (page 14) which explains how many tickets can be purchased at each giving level. Q: Can you “inherit” an ODAF member’s priority points ranking? A: No. ODAF points are non-transferable. Q: How do I select seats along with friends so that our families can sit together? A: To choose tickets together, friends must select seats with the appointment of the lowest ranked ODAF member in the group. Groups are encouraged to contact the ODAF before the reseating process begins. 8 A: Yes, you will have the opportunity to request a change next year, based on your donor rank. If seats are available next year after considering all requests from members ranked higher, your location will be moved. Q: In the event that there are more season ticket applications than available season tickets, how will orders be fulfilled? A: Tickets will be allocated using the ODAF Priority Points System (see page 15). Priority goes first to current ODAF members in priority rank followed by non-ODAF members in priority rank order. Non-ODAF member season tickets will be assigned by the Athletic Ticket Office. Any unfulfilled season ticket orders will be placed on the waiting list. Individual game tickets will be made available to wait list members first, then to the general public. 757.683.6963 www.OldDominionAF.com 9 WAYS TO GIVE Young Alumni Program NEW THIS YEAR!

Submit your company’s matching gift form with your contribution and it can significantly increase your support and associated giving level. Per IRS Publication 526, the IRS 80/20 Rule relating to charitable contributions from which a donor receives or expects to receive benefits (the right to purchase parking passes, priority seating for events, etc.) must also be applied to the matching gift claims as well. If benefits are related to a ODAF contribution, the matching claim could only be submitted for 80% or the portion of the contribution, the matching claim could only be submitted for 80% or the portion of the contribution which is considered truly charitable and tax deductible. Please make note of this IRS policy when considering your ODAF contribution. Memorial Gifts Remember a friend or a loved one with memorial gifts to the ODAF. This young alumni program builds on our membership goals while reaching out to ODU graduates from the class of 2009 and forward. Alumni who qualify receive double the membership benefits and access to the Big Blue Room for men’s and women’s home basketball games. Not only will joining this program provide a jump-start on earning priority points, but it’s a great way to get involved with the ODAF. Be sure to mark your pledge card for enrolling in the Young Alumni Program. Monarch Maniacs Recently, the ODAF took the Monarch Maniacs under its wing to connect and educate current students on the benefits of giving back to ODU. The student group has roughly 800 members and we are aiming to increase that number significantly over the course of this year. Current undergraduate ODU students can become a Monarch Maniac through a $20 membership fee. Not only does this small contribution give them the right to call themselves a Monarch Maniac, but they also receive the following great benefits: • Two (2) official Maniac t-shirts • Giveaways at Football and Basketball games exclusive to Maniacs • Membership Card, providing discounts at sponsored vendors in the Norfolk area • Priority seating for home games and road trips to select away games (non-tournament play only) • Ten (10) priority points for every year of membership (up to 40 points) • Invites to special events Estate Planning You may donate through will provisions, life insurance, and other bequests. Estate gifts may be made by donating a designated amount, a real estate asset or making a residual bequest. If you are interested in including ODU in your Estate Plans, please contact our ODAF staff. 11 The ODAF is very pleased with its recent success and the generosity of our ODAF members. In 2012 we were able to reach a record high of 2,883 donors contributing $3,399,638. Although these are benchmarks for our program, we still need to reach our goal of being fully funded, with a scholarship bill of over $7,100,000.

The intent of our system is to reward loyalty and support, while enabling new donors to acquire appropriate benefits in recognition of their financial support of the ODAF’s scholarship fund. Big Blue has purchased two football and two men’s basketball season tickets for two consecutive years. Big Blue has also been a member of the ODAF for two consecutive years, donating $500 unrestricted each year for a total of $1,000. He was also able to sign up his good friend Charles to join the ODAF at $100. And he donated to the Championship Ring Campaign. This would give Big Blue 186 priority points broken down below: Away Game Tickets & Travel Football Parking** (Season Ticket Holders Only) Big Blue Room Basketball Passes (Season Ticket Holders Only) Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking Tailgate Parking 14 14 12 10 10 12 8 6 4 Red Garage Red Garage Red Garage Red Garage Red Garage Red Garage Yellow Garage Yellow Garage Yellow Garage VIP Garage D VIP Garage D VIP Garage D VIP Garage D VIP Garage D Garage C Garage C Garage C Garage C Garage Parking Garage Parking (1) Additional Football Parking Pass*** (Season Ticket Holders Only) Basketball Parking (Season Ticket Holders Only) Opportunity to Purchase Baseball Clinic Table (Access to Lexus Field Pass Terrace) 8 - Seats 8 - Seats 8 - Seats 8 - Seats 8 - Seats 10 10 8 6 4 (Season Ticket Holders Only) 4 - Seats 4 - Seats 4 - Seats * = The total number of season tickets allowed is equal to the number of priority tickets for purchase Athletic Honors Banquet ** = All Parking Lots are assigned annually and based on availability.
