Why BreakThrough?

Women in sport face
unique pressures.

Gender
Stereotyping

Lack of
Representation

Pay
Inequality

Objectification

Only 41% of women’s collegiate teams are coached by women, and only 28% of youth sports coaches are women.
‍

But progress is about moving forward. We broke through the glass ceiling—now we’re setting the pace.

BreakThrough Summit is a chance for every coach to learn how she can raise the bar.
