This event is designed for organization leaders, coaches, club leaders, and educators working and volunteering in the sport and physical activity sector. Participants will learn from field experts in three interactive sessions: 

  1. 1. Meeting girls’ needs for social connection in sport 

  1. 2. Engaging girls in goal setting and creating a vision for themselves 

  1. 3. Preventing injuries that cut girls’ participation in sport short 

Participants will reflect on their own practice by developing both a personal and a collaborative “Dashboard,” a valuable tool focused on key takeaways from the sessions that can be implemented in any sport environment.

Registration will close on Monday, November 26 at 5:00PM ET.
