Why Our Mission Matters
Underrepresentation in Leadership
Women hold only 26.9% of executive positions in international sports federations, and just 24 out of 206 National Olympic Committees are chaired by women.
Coaching Disparities
At the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, only 13% of coaches were women.
Administrative Gaps
Women held only 65 of 382 athletic director or commissioner roles at NCAA Division I schools in 2023.
Officiating Challenges
Despite progress, women remain significantly underrepresented in major league officiating positions.
