Canadian Women & Sport has released Rally Report 2024: A call to Reimagine Sport So All Girls Can Play.
This new research offers fresh insights into the experiences of girls in sport and aims to support and inspire sport leaders with strategies for how they can redesign sport with girls in mind.
Key insights for the report include:
-
While strides continue to be made in advancing girls’ participation in sport, over 1 million Canadian girls are still missing out on the benefits of sport.
-
More than 1 in 5 girls leave sport during adolescence.
-
7 in 10 girls feel that sport and physical activity positively impact their mental health.
-
1 in 2 girls said participating in sport positively influences their body image.
The online Respect in Sport Activity Leaders/Coach Program educates youth leaders, coaches, officials and participants (14-years and up) to recognize, understand and respond to issues of bullying, abuse, harassment, and discrimination.
It may be the single most important training your leaders will receive to assist them in creating a safe, healthy and respectful environment for all participants!
All active, registered coaches and activity leaders within Sask Sport’s provincial sport membership are required to complete the program.
Designing Sport with Girls in Mind
Sport has the power to transform lives. However, for girls many barriers stand in the way of them fully 
experiencing the benefits of sport.
One barrier is body confidence.
Building off our 2022 Rally Report in partnership with Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities (Jumpstart), we’re diving further into the barriers girls and gender-diverse participants face within sport. Body changes and menstruation combined with social and cultural pressures can contribute to low body confidence in girls. As a result, many girls feel uncomfortable and are pushed out of sport.
Designing sport environments that take girls’ body confidence into consideration is one way we can build better and safer sport.
