As we approach International Day of the Girl (October 11), Canadian Women & Sport—alongside Laureus, Dove, and Nike—are pleased to launch a series of free online events designed to address two often-overlooked barriers in girls’ sport: body confidence and the menstrual cycle.
What’s happening?
- Webinar 1 – Oct 7 @ Noon ET: Rally Report + Body Confidence
- Webinar 2 – Oct 9 @ Noon ET: Rally Report + Menstrual Cycle
- Workshop – Oct 9 6:30PM EST: Retention x Body Confidence (interactive session to apply insights + strategies). Attendees for this workshop will be entered into a draw for 3X $300 Nike gift cards for their athletes/team.
Our research shows that while sport can be a powerful force for building confidence and resilience, many girls face barriers that impact their participation—negative body image to stigma surrounding the menstrual cycle. These events will provide practical tools, strategies, and inspiration for sport leaders to create more inclusive environments where girls can thrive.
Together, we can reimagine sport through girls’ lived experiences.
