IOC trophy for making impact

Sticky Post By On December 11, 2016
Each year, the IOC Women and Sport Awards are given to role models and change agents – women, men or organisations – who have made remarkable contributions to the development, encouragement and reinforcement of women’s participation in sport.

On November 7 our founder, Majken Gilmartin, received the IOC Women and Sport Award Europe 2016 recognising her as a role model and change agent in the pursuit of gender equality in sports.

Toronto pilot project to use ‘female-friendly’ soccer balls for youth

Eir Soccer The Globe and Mail article 2015.02
 
Go to The Globe and Mail
The story is about Toronto Soccer Organization that makes the Eir ball mandatory for their U13 elite players – and in a greater sense about our sport and the way we can play ball: How we create the sense that it is okay to talk about smart adjustments and show players that we really are concerned about their injuries. That equal rights in soccer does not mean playing with the same size ball as men. That we will do whatever it takes to play great and safely.
