Girls In Sport Leadership Summit

As the ‘Green and Gold decade’ for Australian sport takes off, McKinnon Basketball Association is showcasing leading and emerging women from across the sport industry to share their journeys and advice for helping the next generation of girls to enjoy sport their way.

Supported by Change Our Game, the Girls in Sport Leadership Summit aims to:

• Connect passionate people across the sport industry;
• Educate practitioners and parents about how to engage and retain girls in sport;
• Inspire girls and young women with visible sporting role models.

Limited to 500 attendees, this is a rare, must-attend event!

FAQs

Who should attend this?

We've created the event so that it caters to sports administrators and coaches as well as aspirational young people (14-18) looking to start their path in the sport industry.

Do I need to be a basketball person?

No! We're assembling people from a range of sports, each with a unique story to share. We can never guarantee that you won't leave with a soft spot for basketball though...

Why the Girls in Sport Leadership Summit?

The event is made possible by the Office for Women in Sport, one of many projects aiming to promote gender equity within sport. Hence the focus on girls! But the principles covered at the Summit will be just as applicable to all genders.

What should I bring?

Something to write down all the great advice (and something to write it on)
