Take Action! Celebrate National Women’s Sports Week
WoLF is excited to celebrate National Women’s Sport Week, from June 19 - June 23.
National Women’s Sport Week was initiated by our partners at Independent Women’s Forum in 2022 and observed annually during the week of June 23. The week recognizes female athletes—past, present, and future—for their athletic participation and achievement in sport.
National Women’s Sports Week coincides with the anniversary of Title IX, landmark legislation passed in 1972. Title IX transformed sports by guaranteeing women and girls the right to equal athletic opportunities.
National Women’s Sports Week helps raise awareness that athletic participation helps women and girls develop confidence, initiative, and leadership skills.
We're asking Congress to pass the joint resolution officially establishing National Women's Sports Week because women's sports are under attack across the country. When men are allowed to compete as women, female athletes lose opportunities. Recognizing the importance of these opportunities for women and girls has never been more important.
