Empowering Through Sport
For over 50 years, Sportswomen of Colorado has been promoting the participation in sports by females across Colorado. We believe sports is a vehicle to develop the life skills necessary for success from learning hard work and perseverance to being part of a team.
Sports participation paves the way for young people to develop leadership skills needed in their communities.
Participating in sports and physical activity provides essential stimulation for living a healthy life mentally, physically, and emotionally.
By age 14, many girls are dropping out of sports at two times the rate of boys. The reasons? Lack of access, safety and transportation issues, social stigma, decreased quality of experience, cost, and lack of positive role models.
