Invite us to Speak

Request a speaker from Women in Sport

Women in Sport speakers regularly share our expertise at events and workplaces, unpacking the issues affecting women and girls in sport and what needs to be done to make sure every woman and girl knows she belongs.

Every talk is backed by 40+ years of insight, understanding and experience from the UK’s longest-standing women’s sport charity. Our presentations can range from keynotes to panel appearances, workshops and Q&As.

What we speak about

We share:

  • Our research: More than 40 years of evidence on women and girls in sport, answering questions like ‘Why do girls fall out of love with sport?’ (spoiler it’s not because they ‘just aren’t sporty’!) 
  • How we’re making change: From championing women in coaching and leadership, to campaigning for anti-misogyny policies.
  • Our vision and mission: What we want the future of sport to look like and what needs to be done to get there
