Overview

Mission

Our mission with the Carolina Cardinals Nationals softball teams is to provide best opportunities for our female athletes to get better as players and more importantly as people. We want to help provide them with the tools to be successful on the field and off. We think that it is important to integrate both life skills and sports skills with the intention to help build strong confident women in the future. By providing our athletes with the highest level of coaches and playing a highly competitive tournament schedule, we feel this is the best way to create that environment. We provide an intense training schedule with weekly trainings and weekend practices to help build their skills. We will continue to create an environment for our athletes where they can grow and thrive in doing something they love doing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
