Our next session of the Lead Forward Lunch & Learn Webinar Series is coming up on Wednesday, October 21 at 12 PM ET, presented by Emma Bowen, MA, who will explore:

Absence as Resistance: Understanding Girls’ and Gender Diverse Youth’s Refusal of Organized Sports Programs

Join us as Emma discusses why girls and gender-diverse youth may choose not to participate in sport, and how this can reflect their experiences with gendered and unequal sport systems. Her interviews with youth across Canada explore how we can help create more equitable and inclusive futures in sport.

The Lead Forward Lunch & Learn Webinar Series will continue through January 2027 with monthly sessions featuring diverse voices from across sport, research, and community spaces.⁠

Girls in tennis are empowered for life! 🎾💪

Last month, with the support Tennis Canada's Game. Set. Equity grant and St. James Tennis Club's partnership, we hosted a Built to Play tennis event where Ottawa girls could hit the court for free and learn the basics of tennis.

Whether it was their first time picking up a racquet or they were continuing their tennis journey, the event gave girls the chance to connect with others and enjoy a welcoming tennis environment.

A big thank you to our incredible partners for helping make this event possible! 💛
