Women in Sport
Mentoring Program
Launch your career in sport, meet key sport stakeholders and take your leadership to the next level through the Women in Sport Mentoring Program.
The WSA program is open to and designed for women working at an early - mid stage of their career across all areas of sport, sports administration and sports media.
Mentoring is a proven and practical way to encourage the participation and advancement of women in the workforce. The creation of supportive ‘role-model’ based relationships allows a more experienced individual to guide, encourage and support the mentee as she strives to achieve identified aspirations and goals.
Over the past four years, WSA’s Mentoring Program has provided opportunities for over 100 women to form mentoring partnerships with senior female and male sports leaders.
