2014 NAT' GIRLS & WOMEN IN SPORTS

Passing the Torch, Blazing the Trail

National Girls and Women in Sports Day is not just a day to celebrate the achievements of women in sports, but a time to focus on (1) the importance of remedying past discrimination against women in sports, (2) the benefits of sports participation for girls, and (3) addressing the myths that have kept both boys and girls from supporting girls' sports participation.

The NY Liberty have partnered with select organizations to amplify these very messages throughout the NYC Metro via the following:

Girls Prep Middle School - School Assembly
