No excuses, it\u2019s time for 50-50<\/h4>\n

It is hardly surprising that so many women and girls have bad experiences of sport or avoid it altogether when their lived experience is not reflected by the people at the top of sport, who make the decisions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why Women in Sport believes that there should be 50% representation of women in leadership positions within sport. We want to see it made mandatory for all sports organisations in receipt of public money to have 50-50 representation of the sexes on their boards.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Women, like men, are diverse, but we are speaking about the need for gender equality in leadership because there is a commonality in the experience of women which must be recognised. It is also vital that men and women who lead are diverse in terms of their backgrounds and heritage and that disabled people are represented at the top of sport too. Since our founding in 1984 Women in Sport has stood for women in all their diversity and we continue to do so.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
