WNBA CARES
STORM IN THE COMMUNITY
Through WNBA Cares, our teams, players and partners are deeply committed to creating programs
that improve the quality of life for all people, with a special emphasis on education, youth and family
development and health and wellness.
NBA/WNBA FIT
DRIBBLE TO STOP DIABETES
The NBA/WNBA FIT platform
is the league’s comprehensive
health and wellness program
that encourages physical activity
and healthy living for children and families through
grassroots programs and events, and products
related to health, fitness, nutrition and self-esteem.
In cooperation with well-established health and
wellness organizations, NBA/WNBA FIT informs,
educates and engages children and families in
healthy living practices.
Launched in January 2011,
the ‘Dribble to Stop Diabetes’
campaign raises awareness
of the American Diabetes
Association’s “Stop Diabetes”
movement and addresses
an important piece of diabetes care and prevention
– physical fitness. The program will be aimed at
using the simple and fun activity of dribbling a
basketball as a way to promote healthy, active
lifestyles and diabetes awareness, prevention and
management during in-arena team nights.
WNBA GREEN
The WNBA is committed to a
long-term environmental plan
through the implementation of
sustainable business practices
and procedures that decrease the
league’s carbon footprint and contribute to a clean,
healthy environment. The WNBA Greening Initiative
is an innovative program designed to reduce the
environmental impact of the league’s operations and
events.
BREAST HEALTH AWARENESS
VACCINES FOR TEENS
Launched in February 2009,
Vaccines for Teens is a
national multimedia campaign designed to educate
teens and their parents about the importance of
vaccination against meningitis, flu and pertussis.
Press events are hosted by WNBA teams and joined
by the Society of Adolescent Health and Medicine,
sanofi pasteur and the NBA league office
(including NBA Legend Bob Lanier). WNBA Legend
Lisa Leslie is a campaign spokesperson.
The WNBA Breast Health
Awareness program has
focused on generating
awareness and educating
women about breast cancer
in addition to raising funds
for the initiative.
Read to Achieve
With the goal of making
“Every Child a Reader,” the
Storm is partnering with
the Seattle Public Library
to promote summer reading in the Read to Achieve
program. Youth participants who complete the
program earn Storm tickets, and a Storm representative will appear at the Seattle Public Library
Foundation breakfast of champions. Storm players
will also make an appearance at Library programs
to read to kids.
TICKETS FOR KIDS
One of the Storm’s signature community initiatives is
Tickets for Kids, a charitable
donation program that allows
individuals and corporations
to purchase Storm tickets for local nonprofit organizations that serve children in the Puget Sound
area. Through Tickets for Kids, children have the
opportunity to experience the WNBA firsthand and
to be exposed to positive female role models.
JR. STORM PROGRAM
The Storm is a positive
organization that
demonstrates its
commitment to the community by investing in local
youth. Storm players are strong role models and
the organization actively leads community initiatives
that encourage youth to lead a healthy and active
lifestyle. Through the Storm, Bing too will connect
with the Seattle community from the ground level
and support positive initiatives to ensure our
community can continue to have access to these
activities. As the presenting sponsor of the Jr.
Storm youth basketball initiative Bing will provide
tickets to all program participants during the 2011
season. In April of 2010, the Storm and Bing
launched the first Jr. Storm Tour and will continue
to host free basketball clinics for youth between
Kindergarten and 6th grade at King County Boys
and Girls Club location during the 2011 season.
JAMBA JUICE
In partnership with Jamba Juice,
WNBA FIT will highlight both
companies’ commitment to
promoting fitness/healthy nutrition
through joint promotional activities
with WNBA teams.
WNBA READ TO ACHIEVE
The Read to Achieve
campaign is a program that
values reading and on-line
literacy and encourages
families and adults to read regularly with young
children. The program includes special reading
time-outs, the donation of books and literacy
materials to schools and community
based organizations.
The Seattle Storm believes that success is not measured solely by wins on the basketball court. Giving
back to the community is also a high priority, and the Storm has established a strong connection with
its fans throughout the region. The team aims to serve as a powerful community advocate with a focus
on literacy, health and fitness, support for women and girls and youth basketball. The Storm strives to
strengthen the bond between players and fans by creating meaningful, personal experiences and to enrich their support of local organizations through effective community partnerships. Recognized as one of
the WNBA’s most active teams in the community, the Storm is committed to serving others through the
team’s community initiatives.
COKE LIVE
POSITIVELY CLINICS
In partnership with
Coke, WNBA Cares
will host five (5) WNBA
FIT Live Positively Clinics in priority markets. These
fitness clinics will be led by Players or Legends,
for more than 75 youth.

FORCE 10 HOOPS LLC
The Seattle Storm’s ownership group, Force 10 Hoops LLC, is comprised of three Seattle
businesswomen and civic leaders, all season ticket holders, who stepped forward to purchase
the Storm in January 2008 so that the team would remain in Seattle. Their actions were driven
by their shared commitment to the importance of giving back to the community and to the
philosophy that women and girls should have the chance to compete at every level.
The group’s announcement of intent to purchase the Storm was made on Jan. 8, 2008, and
the purchase was approved by the WNBA Board of Governors on Feb. 28, making the Storm
one of six independently owned franchises in the WNBA. Force 10 derives its name from the
point on the Beaufort wind scale at which bad weather officially becomes a storm.

2010 STORM SEASON NOTES
• The Storm became the first team since the WNBA Finals expanded to a best-of-five series to sweep its way through
the postseason and the only team in league history to finish the regular season and playoffs unbeaten at home.
• The Storm completed the 2010 WNBA regular season with a record of 28-6 (the WNBA’s best in 2010 and
a Storm franchise best). It was the team’s fifth 20-win season, third 20-win season in a row and the third with Coach Brian Agler.
• The Storm has become only the fourth professional team to go through the playoffs undefeated while playing at least seven games.
• The Storm completed the 2010 regular season and postseason on a 10-game winning streak.
• The Storm went undefeated at home, joining the 2001 Los Angeles Sparks as the only teams in WNBA history to do so and becoming the first team in league history to win 17 home games during the regular season.
• The Storm won 28 games, tying the record for the most wins in WNBA history (with the 2000 and 2001 L.A. Sparks, both 28-4).
• The Storm won 13 games in a row from June 18-July 30, 2010, the longest streak in team history and the third longest the WNBA
has ever seen (Los Angeles, 18, June 26-Aug. 11, 2001; Houston, 15, June 27-July 30, 1998).
• The Storm started the season (20-2), equaling the WNBA record for the best start after 22 games (the 1998 Houston Comets started 25-2 and finished 27-3).
• The Storm (28-6, .824) surpassed the 2005 Seahawks (13-3, .813) for the best single-season win percentage in Seattle pro sports history.
• The Storm beat Tulsa by 46 points, 111-65, on Aug. 7 to break the WNBA record for the largest margin of victory
(previously 45 by Houston at Washington, 110-65, Aug. 17, 1998) and tie the team record for most points scored in a game.
• Three Storm players (Sue Bird, Lauren Jackson & Swin Cash) were voted to the All Star team (more players than from any other team).
• Seattle became the first all-female ownership group to win a professional sports title.

GENERAL MEDIA INFORMATION
GENERAL MEDIA INFORMATION
Welcome to the 2011 Seattle Storm season. The following media guidelines have been established to
assist you in your coverage of the Storm and to provide a professional, comfortable working environment
for all members of the media.
PR HOTLINE
206-281-5847
If you have any questions or interview requests, please contact the Storm PR Hotline.
KEYARENA is located on the grounds of the
Sattle Center. From I-5 (north or southbound)
take the Mercer Street exit and follow the
signs marked “Seattle Center.” The arena is
approximately 25 minutes north of the airport.
MEDIA ENTRANCE is located through Parking Lot 4
on the south side of KeyArena (corner of Warren
Street and Thomas Street).
CREDENTIALS may be requested by calling the public relations department 24 hours prior to the game.
Credentials are issued to accredited members of
the media who are on assignment to cover a specific game. Please confirm your credential request
prior to arriving at the game. Credentials should be
used for work at all times and are non-transferable.
Unauthorized use of a credential may subject the
bearer to ejection from the arena and forfeiture of
the credential.
PARKING is available on a limited basis and may be
arranged by phoning the public relations department.
TELEPHONES are provided in the media workroom
and on a limited basis at courtside. If you need
a dedicated phone line, call the public relations
department to make arrangements.
SEATING is located at courtside, on the second
level of the west side of the arena and in all media
sections. Please do not switch seating without
approval from a member of the public relations department. Seating charts can be found at the media
entrance and in the media workroom.
PHOTOGRAPHERS can find photo charts with their
assigned spots at the media entrance, in the media
workroom and on the basket stanchions. All lanes
are assigned and photographers are asked to not
switch lanes without approval from a member of the
public relations department. Please be considerate of season-ticket holders seated directly behind
you. For the safety of players and in accordance
with league rules, photographers must remain at
least four feet behind the baseline at all times.
Remote cameras and tripods are not permitted.
Use of a flash is prohibited. Rubber lens shades

to support women’s sports and reach its strong
fanbase of women, families, and young girls
through advertising in WNBA nationally televised

relationship with adidas. The sporting goods and
apparel giant not only serves as the official outfitter
of the WNBA – having unveiled new uniforms
across the league in 2007 and again in 2011 – but
also served as the presenter of the WNBA Draft
since 2007. In 2008 adidas became the first-ever
presenting partner of the WNBA’s entire postseason, including both the playoffs and Finals.
Five WNBA teams have entered the league’s
Marquee Partnership program, which includes
multiyear deals featuring branded sponsorship of
game jerseys – the Phoenix Mercury partnering

The WNBA’s broadcast coverage in 2010 included more than 30 live national telecasts of regularseason and postseason contests on ESPN2 and
ABC, and another 40-plus games on NBA TV, as
well as games streamed on ESPN360.com.
The WNBA’s broadcast coverage in 2011 will
include 70 high-definition regular-season, playoff,
and Finals games on ESPN2, ABC and NBA
TV. In addition, all WNBA games are available
online via WNBA LiveAccess unless: (a) They are
televised on ABC or ESPN2 – in which case they
stream live on ESPN3.com and are later archived
to WNBA.com, or (b) They are televised at the
same time a game is televised on ABC or ESPN2
– in which case they stream live on ESPN3.com
and are later archived to WNBA.com.
In July 2007, the WNBA signed a new, eight-year
TV deal with ESPN that tipped off in 2009 and
runs through 2016, the WNBA’s 20th season.

ESPN2 to telecast WNBA games, includes rights
fees, a first for any women’s pro team sports
league in the U.S.
Global Reach: Now in its second decade, the

with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2011 Draft.
WNBA Draft: The 2011 WNBA Draft presented
by adidas took place on April 11 at ESPN
headquarters in Bristol, Conn. It marked the first

campus. The Minnesota Lynx selected University
of Connecticut’s Maya Moore as the top overall
pick. The Tulsa Shock selected Elizabeth Cambage second, the Chicago Sky tabbed Courtney
Vandersloot third, the Lynx chose Amber Harris
fourth, and the Los Angeles Sparks took Jantel
Lavender fifth to round out the first five selections.

the independent ownership model: the Atlanta
Dream, Chicago Sky, Connecticut Sun, Los Angeles Sparks, Seattle Storm, and Tulsa Shock.
With the announcement on Oct. 20, 2009 that
the Detroit Shock would relocate to Tulsa, Okla.,
Tulsa Pro Hoops L.L.C. began play in 2010. Force
10 Hoops, L.L.C., the entity owned by Seattle

Dream. In addition, the Los Angeles Sparks
opened the 2007 season with new ownership
after Kathy Goodman and Carla Christofferson,
two long-time season ticket holders, bought the
Sparks on Dec. 7, 2006. They joined Michael
Alter’s Chicago Sky, and the Mohegan Tribe’s
Connecticut Sun as independently owned WNBA
franchises.

owners of WNBA teams: Dr. Sheila Johnson
(Washington Mystics); Kathy Goodman and Carla
Christofferson (Los Angeles Sparks); Kathy Betty,
Mary Brock, and Kelly Loeffler (Atlanta); and Dawn
Trudeau, Ginny Gilder, and Lisa Brummel (Seattle
Storm). A 10th, musical artist Michelle Williams,
formerly of “Destiny’s Child,” is a minority owner of
the Chicago Sky.
Dr. Sheila Johnson, a co-founder of Black Entertainment Television, became the WNBA’s first
African-American female owner on May 24, 2005
when she joined Ted Leonsis’ Lincoln Holdings
LLC, which in turn purchased the Washington
Mystics from Washington Wizards’ owner Abe
Pollin.

October 1, 1997 The WNBA announces that
home 2010 WNBA Finals MVP honors. Lisa Leslie
of the Los Angeles Sparks became the first – and
only – WNBA player to capture the regular-season, All-Star, and Finals MVP awards during the
same season (2001).
Jackson also became the third player to earn
WNBA MVP honors three times (2003, 2007,
2010), joining the Sparks’ Lisa Leslie (2001, 2004,
2006) and the Houston Comets’ Sheryl Swoopes
(2000, 2002, 2005). Houston’s Cynthia Cooper
earned the award twice (1997, 1998). The others to capture MVP honors are the Sacramento
Monarchs’ Yolanda Griffith (1999), the Sparks’
Candace Parker (2008, when she became the first
rookie in league history to earn the award), and the
Phoenix Mercury’s Diana Taurasi (2009).
Candace Parker became the first WNBA player to
win Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player
in the same season (2008). The first selection in
the 2008 WNBA Draft, she earned both honors
after leading the league in double-doubles and
rebounds per game, while also ranking second in
blocks per game and fourth in points per game.
Lauren Jackson became the WNBA’s youngest (26
years, 77 days) and fastest (209 games) to score
her 4,000th career point on July 27, 2007. Diana
Taurasi subsequently surpassed Jackson as the
fastest to 4,000 points in terms of fewest games
played when she reached the milestone on July 27,
2009 in just 197 games.
Taurasi rewrote the WNBA scoring records in
2006 when she led the league with 25.3 points per
contest, became the first WNBA player to top 800
points in a single season (860), and the singleseason mark for three-point field-goals (121) and
the single-game mark for points (47, a number later
equaled by the Storm’s Lauren Jackson in 2007).

(14 points, 15 rebounds, 10 assists) vs. the Detroit
Shock on July 27, 1999.
Lisa Leslie became the first player to dunk in a
WNBA game when she did so on July 30, 2002
vs. the Miami Sol. Candace Parker, also of the
Sparks, was the second, throwing down a dunk vs.
the Indiana Fever on June 22, 2008.
