Girls as young as five years old are being bombarded by messages that make them feel as though sport is not a place for them.
We have found that 43% of teenage girls who once considered themselves ‘sporty’, disengage from sport following primary school.
Just 12 per cent of women have cycled at least twice in the past 28 days – almost half the number of men (22%).

After an incredible summer of women’s sport, Women in Sport is encouraging mothers and their teenage daughters to spend #TimeTogether this October.
Women in Sport is thrilled to announce the appointment of Olympic champion Tessa Sanderson CBE as an Ambassador.
