Trends surrounding women sport coaches need illumination in order to
create systems change. In this report, I identify ten trends and provide
suggestions and opportunities for improving the sport landscape for
women who coach. Much work remains and systems change will only occur by creating awareness of the opportunities through letting data tell the story, along with intentionality, consistency, perseverance, creativity, and collaboration. Each trend is followed by suggested opportunities for change, and examples of changes that are occurring.
I invite you to send us your women coaches organization, event, initiative, or program so that we can compile and share. No good work is done alone and the more we work together, the faster the change will occur. Reproducing the wheel is ineffective. We
are stronger together. I hope this document spurs some additional
change and sharing of best practices.
