Did you know there is a Sport Sister Podcast?

We have 3 great seasons of conversations with some brilliant guests from across the sports industry.

We've been talking a lot recently about the Importance of Women in Sports Leadership Roles, so we thought it would be a great time to remind you of the brilliant episode we recorded featuring consultant and Non-Executive Director of Women in Football, Kelly Simmons, and the General Manager of Northern Powerhouse Boxing Academy, Josie McNamara. They joined our founder, Natalie, to chat all about women on sports boards.

Check out this episode in your favourite podcast app, or checkout the transcript over on the Sport Sister website.

The importance of women in sports leadership roles cannot be overstated.

Their contributions lead to more equitable, inclusive, and innovative sports environments.

As we continue to champion gender equality in all areas of society, it is essential to recognise and support the women who are leading the way in sport.

By doing so, we not only enrich the sports world but also inspire future generations to strive for greatness, both on and off the pitch.
