Improving the future for females in sport
Female participation in sport has many benefits, including overall health benefits, decreased risk of depression and anxiety, improved well-being, empowerment, and opportunities for leadership and achievement, according to Canadian Women & Sport. Canadian Women & Sports advocates for encouraging more women in leadership positions to achieve gender parity through mentorship and creation of opportunities for women to gain experience.
Sport gives the sense of pride and passion towards something that every woman should get to experience. Sport teaches many valuable life lessons and builds character.” While there has been progress in women’s sports, women have yet to reach the goal of gender parity. We need to see women being prioritized not only from a perspective of diversity reflected in improved numbers of women in leadership, but also through inclusion, which would see women empowered and equitably treated in leadership roles. Don’t be afraid to do something just because someone else says you can’t, because you never know the impact it’ll have on you or the impact you could have on someone else.”
All Canadians should have the opportunity to participate and excel in sport regardless of age, gender, ethnicity or ability. Together with our communities, we can help ensure more women and girls in particular are able to enjoy the benefits of sport.
