Why Join Our Team?

We are champion athletes and lifelong women’s sports advocates who formed the Women’s Sports Policy Working Group in 2020 to restore girls’ and women’s legal right to the female-only sports and intimate spaces we deserve.

We already collaborate with other sports, feminist, legal, and scientific organizations and experts, but to accomplish our mission, we need the broadest, most educated and motivated team possible.

Women’s Sports Policy offers you access to what we’re thinking and doing — including news, information, calls to action, and inspiration (we hope). As free or paid subscribers, you have the opportunity to offer your thoughts, suggestions, questions, and support, thus becoming meaningful members of our team.

Our hope is that you’ll help us co-create a future where female athletes enjoy the female-only sports and intimate spaces we deserve.

Yours in fair play for all female athletes,

Martina Navratilova, OLY

Donna Lopiano, Ph.D.
