The partnership between Johnnie Walker, a Scotch whisky brand, and Hannah Waddingham exemplifies best practices of how brands are getting involved in women’s sports and the power of collaborations in promoting gender equality in sports. 📢 Campaign Message: "Watch Women's Sports" 🎯 Partnership Objective: • Amplify the FIFA Women’s World Cup, the largest standalone women’s sporting event globally • Addressing the media coverage disparity: despite women comprising over 40% of athletes, women’s sports receive less than 10% of total sports news coverage - now 15% post-2023 🤝 Collaborative Outreach: • Through the “Match Day Memos." Johnnie Walker broadened the campaign's impact by partnering with organizations committed to gender equality: Women's Sports Foundation, Just Women's Sports, and Hello Sunshine 🏆 Dedication & Commitment: • Building on the momentum from Johnnie Walker’s 2022 "First Strides" campaign, this initiative amplifies its commitment to pioneering cultural shifts and championing equality. • Johnnie Walker's support also extends to Angel City Football Club and NJ/NY Gotham FC. The campaign showcases how brands like Johnnie Walker can champion gender equality in sports, elevating the visibility, support, and appreciation for women's sports on a global scale. #WomensInSports #WatchWomensSports #BrandPartnerships 🎥 Watch the campaign: https://lnkd.in/gRP5z3kX

A sociological gaze at activism in sport, interesting to understand how the voice of athletes is at the heart of political struggles on doping issues. Many thanks to my colleagues for this great collaboration. To summarize: Advocacy has pushed influential sport organisations to change the sports culture, in particular in the fight against doping and on issues of integrity in sport. However, beneath advocacy for ‘noble causes’ lie struggles for meaning and power. Some advocates committed to protecting athletes’ rights are also appropriating “their voice” and using their symbolic capital, albeit without their consent, in power games against the Olympic Committee or the World Anti-Doping Agency. https://buff.ly/48vb9QC

Womens Football is an investable entity. I repeat, Womens Football IS an investable entity. Companies are waking up to the idea that women’s football should be big business. So why do clubs respond by cutting their womens set up? In the mens game, there is an ambition, patience and desire to invest. Clubs must move with the times and mindset shift around womens football. We are an investable entity! Get on the train or get left behind.
Women and girls deserve to play ⚽ This week, Thornaby FC decided to cut the female section of the club from the U7s through to the Women’s team. More than 100 women and girls from the club have lost the joy and sense of belonging that being part of this team has given them. This decision prompted local and national outrage, lead by high profile players such as Beth Mead who spoke out and gave their support. This moment has displayed that the country is united in its support for women's sport. We need equal representation of the sexes on all sports boards and committees, no matter the size of the club or organisation, to make sure regressive decisions like this are a thing of the past. It's 2024, and women and girls should not be excluded from sport. Listen to our full interview on BBC Radio 4 Woman's Hour here: https://lnkd.in/e6NcxgpV

The Government is now ‘dancing on the head of a pin’ in backtracking an important policy, and trying to “ensure both fairness and inclusivity” in community sport. Previously the NZ First-led coalition agreement made it a policy to potentially withhold public funding from New Zealand sports bodies if they do not comply with a requirement to separate transgender athletes from grassroots competitions (I.e. preventing biological men from competing against girls and women in grassroots sports). We think the government is ignoring the safety and fairness required in sports especially for women, but also strong public opinion, by turning a blind eye to biological males playing in female sports against girls and women. #womenssports #whatisawoman #familyfirst #familyfirstnz https://lnkd.in/gDksmEnz

Sports, the pinnacle of human prowess and endurance, has historically shaped societies, becoming an integral part of our lives. It serves as a healthy pastime, a source of patriotic pride, a peaceful diplomatic avenue, and a captivating form of entertainment. Yet, labeling today's sports fans in one word proves challenging. If "dedicated" comes to mind, you're among the few who recognize their commitment. However, gender influences how this dedication is perceived. Sadly, descriptions of female fans often bear the stains of misogyny. Women have long embraced sports, sharing the excitement of stadiums or watching from home, but media, fans, and even sports management don't always accord them the same respect as men. Read this article by Samah Noor Nausheer on the Imperium Publication website to learn more.
