Our core objective is to give women the opportunity to reap the benefits of having sport in their lives from the top down through increasing viewership and attendance and bottom-up via participation. We are doing this by reframing the narrative around women’s sports: demonstrating that it’s up to us – the fans, the athletes at all levels, the current and future leaders – to show our support of women’s sports, ensure future opportunities for girls/women, and drive growth for the total sports community. Our values are based on four key principles: positive – collaborative – inclusive – active, these values drive everything we do and are at the heart of how we are shaping a new future in sports. These values drive everything we do and are at the heart of how we are shaping a new future in sports.”

It’s up to us to take the next step forward for women’s sports. Join me in watching, attending & supporting female athletics & challenge your friends to do the same.
