WELCOME!: The University of New Hampshire office of athletic communications genuinely appreciates your coverage of UNH women’s soccer, and looks forward to each and every time it can welcome you to Durham. Members of the office include women’s soccer contact Taylor Sievers, associate athletic director for com-munications Mike Murphy, associate directors of athletic commu-nications Doug Poole and Alex Comeau and Jon Luszcz, assistant director of athletic communications as well as the team of student-assistants who are available to assist with your coverage. The office is happy to help you however it can. We encourage you to famil-iarize yourself with the policies relevant to your coverage of the women’s soccer program, as outlined on this page. Please feel free to contact Taylor Sievers via phone or email with questions regard-ing the media policy.

GENERAL POLICIES: All interviews with any member of the women’s soccer program, including head coach Steve Welham, the coaching staff and student-athletes must be coordinated through Taylor Sievers in the office of athletic communications. Members of the media are strictly prohibited from approaching any coach, staff member or student-athlete by any means, including text mes-sages, email, phone calls (cell, office or home) or social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, without first approaching athletic com-munications. Regarding unique subject matter, such as human-interest angles, members of the media are welcome to approach the office of athletic communications at least 24 hours in advance with requests to interview any member of the program. Approved requests will be granted.

INTERVIEW GUIDELINES: Interviews, either in person or via tele-phone, with members of the UNH women’s soccer coaching staff and student-athletes must be coordinated through assistant direc-tor of athletic communications Taylor Sievers. Media are asked not to request an individual’s personal contact information, including email and cell number, but rather to contact Taylor Sievers. Stu-dent-athletes and coaches are available for interviews at the con-clusion of daily practice sessions. Student-athlete interviews will not conflict with classes, meetings, medical treatment or practice times. Interviews are not permitted in the locker room or training room. Interviews will not be granted on match days until follow-ing the contest. Telephone interviews should be requested at least 24 hours in advance and coordinated through Taylor Sievers. All interviews will be processed on an availability basis involving the requested interviewee.

PRACTICE GUIDELINES: All UNH women’s soccer practices are open to the media and public, unless otherwise noted. During the season, practice will generally run from 1-3 p.m. during the week, except on match and travel days. Please note, practice times are subject to change on short or no notice. At times, practice will end early, so please plan to arrive early. Practice will usually take place on Bremner Field, but contact Taylor Sievers for the most updated schedule. All interviews must take place before or after practice. If this is an issue, contact Taylor Sievers, and the office of athletic com-munications and we will try and accommodate to your schedule. All media should remain on the sidelines, standing a safe distance from the boundary to prevent collisions.

GAMEDAY: Near the end of each home match, the athletic com-munications staff will ask those on hand representing the media who they wish to speak with. Approximately 10 minutes after the

conclusion of a match, head coach Steve Welham and the selected student-athletes will be available for questions.

GAMEDAY SERVICES: In-game services include live online statis-tics and box scores following the contest.

REPORTING OF INJURIES: At all times throughout the calendar year, head coach Steve Welham will serve as the sole source for injury information. All questions related to injuries should be di-rected to Welham, and not to any other members of the program, including athletic trainers, doctors, the injured student-athlete or her teammates.
