One of six sessions being held across the province between Nov. 21 and 30
The recent Professional Women’s Hockey Player’s Association event at the Rath Eastlink Community Centre demonstrated how important it is for female players to have adult female players in their chosen sport to look up to. Richard MacKenzieMILLBROOK, N.S.
The organization’s website includes the statistics which are driving the sessions. Of note is the fact studies have shown that as girls enter adolescence, one out of three drop out of sports compared to just one in 10 boys. Beyond adolescence, women 19 to 31 years old participate in sports at just half the rate of men.workshops/sessions are designed for coaches, recreation leaders, teachers and sport administrators.
Also up for discussion is how to “holistically design programs to meet the psycho-social needs of girls to increase their participation and retention in sport and physical activity, and practical recommendations for applying learning in different environments.”
