As we develop our new strategy, the key themes of; well-being, diversity and inclusion will all be central to the critical development of our sporting system in Northern Ireland.  Our mission statement is; ‘By 2025; we want the power of sport to be recognised and valued by all.’

Today on International Women’s Day we are launching a new survey focusing on women and girls in sport as related to coaching and leadership. We want to know how best we as an organisation, in conjunction with our partners, and the wider public can encourage more females to take part and flourish in all aspects of sport whether this be as; a participant, volunteer, coach or leader, high performing athlete or an employee working in the area of sport or physical activity.

We are asking anyone involved in female coaching and/or leadership (both male and female) aged 16+ years to take part and complete our survey. This will take approximately 10 minutes to complete and your responses are anonymous.
