Just an FYI-

Found this press release on the WPBA web site:

WPBA said:
WOMEN POOL SHARKS TO BE FEATURED ON CHIC SPORTS RADIO

You've seen them on TV and watched them at the casinos and now you can find
out all you want to know about the women who play professional pool.

Chic Sports Radio will be including a segment on some of its show from the
Women's Professional Billiards Association. The segment will be presented
by Shari Stauch who will be the Chic Sports Radio Professional Billiards Correspondent.

Stauch is the spokesperson for the Women's Pro Billiard Tour, and will be
giving reports about the tour on a regular basis. She is also the co-owner
of Pool & Billiard Magazine which was founded by her and her father, Harold
L. Simonsen, in 1983 in Chicago as a small newsletter.

"Shari Stauch has simply incredible credentials in this sport and we are
thrilled to have her participate on the show. She was instrumental in the
launch of the WPBA's highly successful Classic Billiard Tour, now seen
regularly on ESPN and she helped the WPBA obtain it's first successful TV
negotiations, launched a PR division and set up the sponsor development
programs," states VP Debby Lening.

And, if that wasn't enough, Stauch appeared in and was a special consultant
to the production of The Color of Money (1987), with screen credits. She
has been featured in hundreds of radio, television, newspaper and magazine
interviews in major markets, including feature appearances in Los Angeles,
San Francisco, Detroit, Boston, Baltimore, Orlando, Nashville, New York
City, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Charleston and Charlotte. In 1999 she was
named one of Charleston, South Carolina's Top "40 Under 40" by the
Charleston Regional Business Journal.

"Chic Sports Radio is a terrific opportunity to promote our sport and
players to a wider fan base. With women's pro tour TV programming now
gaining more and more global exposure, it makes sense that radio news and
updates also take on global proportions. We look forward to providing the
'Chicks with Sticks' segment on Chic Sports Radio!"

CHIC SPORTS RADIO programming will include a PRO SPORTS REPORT with
correspondents giving reports from
the LPGA, The Sony Ericsson Women's
Tennis Tour, Women's Pro Fast Pitch Softball, the WNBA, The Women's Sports
Foundation, The Women's Professional Billiards Association, Women's Boxing
Association, National Women's Football Association, Women's Bass Fishing
Association, Thunder Valley Racing, Babes in the Backcountry, Women's Poker
Club and Women's Soccer World.

There will also be a COLLEGE REPORT featuring correspondents from many of
the top colleges and their women's sports programs.

The weekly show will debut on April 8, 2005 at 9:00pm Eastern Standard Time
on Sports Byline. CHIC SPORTS RADIO will be broadcast on Sports Byline USA
Radio Network (www.sportsbyline.com) which consists of nearly 200 US radio
stations and more than 500 stations in 177 countries of the American Forces
Network. The show will also be heard on SIRIUS Satellite Radios channel
122.

I wonder how frequent the updates will be? I hope they provide updates from day one instead of just the finals. Here is a list of Stations that provide this show.

I don't think they are updates from the tourney. Looks like it's more like a weekly or monthly update.

Stauch is the spokesperson for the Women's Pro Billiard Tour, and will be
giving reports about the tour on a regular basis.


My local station is listed. I'll try to remember to listen
