The first time Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova stepped onto a tennis court together, the world scarcely noticed. Only a few hundred spectators saw the pert 18-year-old beat the scrappy 16-year-old Czech in 1973. “I remember that she was fat,” Evert recalled. “She was very emotional on the court, whining if she didn't feel she was playing well. But I remember thinking, if she loses weight, we’re all in trouble.” Said Navratilova, “My goal was for her to remember my name.” Eighty matches later – amid the extraordinary growth of women’s tennis – Evert not only remembered, but became a tried and true friend and confidante, remarkable considering the two appeared to be polar opposites in upbringing, life styles and personal relationships. Through a series of personal conversations, this documentary will tell the story of one of the greatest one-on-one sports rivalries and capture these two extraordinary athletes’ views on tennis and an ever-changing world.

Alabama head coach Patrick Murphy had never seen a group like those who joined the Crimson Tide in 2009. They were only freshmen, but their talent was deep, and their hearts seemed to beat in sync. The group was so special, Coach Murphy predicted they’d win a national championship – something he had yet to accomplish despite reaching the NCAA Women’s College World Series seven times. Would Alabama become the first school from the Southeastern Conference to win a national title in softball? Would the SEC’s newest sports team find victory in a landscape dominated by the West Coast? “BAMA SB” is a story about the power of friendship, grit, and selflessness.
