April 6-7, 2022 This exclusive and engaging professional development and virtual networking experience will take place on April 6-7, 2022. The three previous events were widely recognized for preparing women to achieve leadership positions in the growing field of athlete development. Since the event’s inception in 2019, over 200 women seeking to enter and advance in the sports industry have gained valuable knowledge, insight, advice, and mentorship from nationally respected women leaders. Currently, forty-five percent of these women have utilized this knowledge and network to achieve their desired career position educating, transitioning and developing athletes. Led by a diverse group of industry experts and respected practitioners in the field of athlete development, the symposium sessions will address today’s most critical challenges including diversity, equity and inclusion, mental health and wellness, name, image and likeness, and athlete engagement and leadership.

April 9, 2022 at 2pm EST In 2018, Eighteen Under 18 began as an event to shine a light on students who are creating change in their communities. Unlike your average award ceremony the conversation led a call to action for young women in the audience to participate by pitching their own community centered initiatives.
Today, Eighteen Under 18 awards students across the Dinner Table's network for outstanding achievements across leadership, civic engagement, communications, the arts and STEM. Awarded students deliver speeches that lead a call to action for young women in the audience to participate and defy the odds and obstacles as they reach for the stars. Click HERE to Register! |

Application Due Date: April 22, 2022 Sports 4 Life offers community funding and seeks to effect sustainable improvement to the overall health and development of girls in these communities through grant making, leadership training and capacity-building efforts. Sports 4 Life, cofounded by the Women’s Sports Foundation and espnW in 2014, was created based on the knowledge that while sports participation offers tremendous life-long benefits – from improved physical health and self-esteem, to better grades in school and enhanced leadership skills – young girls of color are disproportionately excluded. The program seeks to increase the participation and retention of Black, African-American, Hispanic and/or Native American girls, inclusive of American Indian and Alaska Native communities. 2022 funding is made possible by Sports 4 Life founding partner espnW, The Walt Disney Company, and Gatorade. Deadlines and Relevant Dates The 2022 Sports 4 Life Partner funding cycle is open. WSF will adhere to the following two-step application process, and schedule: - LOI application must be submitted by April 22, 2022
