OUR VISION
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
IN SPORT.
REGARDLESS OF GENDER.
Her Sport is Ireland’s leading platform for women’s sport. Through media, education, advocacy and the Her Sport Foundation, we are building a sporting culture where more girls and women can start, stay and succeed.
VISIBILITY
Visibility changes what girls believe is possible. 55% say seeing female athletes inspires them to play sport. That’s why Her Sport puts women’s sport front and centre, giving 900+ female athletes visibility in just one year.
EDUCATION
Her Sport has reached 4,000+ students, helping girls build the confidence, knowledge and tools to stay in sport. We also work with the people and organisations around them to create lasting change in the environments where girls play, learn and grow.
ADVOCACY
We are the voice for girls and women in sport. Her Sport has contributed to the National Strategy for Women and Girls and Oireachtas Committees on inclusion in sport. Our advocacy focuses on systemic change, from better access to toilets and changing facilities to safer, more inclusive environments for women and girls to be active.
FOUNDATION
The Her Sport Foundation removes financial barriers to sport, subsidising workshops for schools and providing vital support to clubs, teams and athletes for kit, equipment and travel.

11%
ARE ACTIVE ENOUGH
Just 11% of teenage girls in Ireland meet daily activity guidelines. Most are missing out on the lifelong benefits of movement.

SPORT BUILDS LEADERS
94% of women in executive managerial positions have a background in sport. The skills learned on the field travel far beyond it.

WOMEN’S SPORT IS STILL UNDER-SEEN
Women’s sport still receives less than one-fifth of sports coverage. Yet seeing female athletes inspires girls to believe sport is for them.
