#TakeActionTuesday: WSF President Swin Cash is featured in Women's Health as part of their Game Changers series, where she brings into focus the power of sport to shape girls’ and women’s lives. 

As Swin notes, when girls play sports, they gain skills on and off the court through the confidence and leadership abilities developed. Our research shows that 71 percent of women who played sports go on to hold leadership roles, carrying those lessons into their schools, careers, and communities. 

However, pathways into sport for girls remain limited compared to the broader, more established routes available to boys. Therefore, there is still a need for intentional investment and support. 

WSF remains committed to advocating for increased access to athletics for girls and women at every level, because we know it isn’t just about equity in sport, it’s about shaping a stronger, more inclusive future for all. #TheEquityProject 

Your Turn: 
1. Read Swin Cash’s Women’s Health article and take time to reflect on the connection between sports and leadership. 

2. Use our free We Play Interactive resource to help your local recreational or school sports programs uplift and support girls. 

3. Head to our website to read WSF’s research report ‘Play to Lead: The Generational Impact of Sport on Women’s Leadership,’ which focuses on the impact youth sport participation has on women’s leadership development.
