Why sports?

Taking part in sports isn’t about the cheers, or the wins, or the bragging rights. It’s about way more than that. Playing sports helps girls develop confidence1 and important life skills, such as resilience and discipline. It also helps girls to develop their self-esteem and improve mental health.2

Yet nearly 1 in 3 girls drop out of sports during puberty, mostly because they don’t think they’re good enough or they don’t feel encouraged to keep playing.2

Together, we can keep girls playing

74% of girls think more support needs to be shown to keep them involved in sports2. That’s why Always is teaming up with Malala Yousafzai, Stef Reid & other inspirational women to rally society and help #KeepHerPlaying.
