This latest report from the Commission on the Future of Women’s Sport shows that women’s sport represents a great opportunity for switched-on investors.

The Women in Sport Audit 2007/2008 looks at the inequalities faced by women's sport. The Audit works across the three core areas of Leadership, Investment and Profile to provide an overview of the sector and uncover where sport is missing out when it comes to women.
The audit exposes just how uneven the playing field currently is when it comes to men and women. Across leadership, investment and promotion in sport, women are on the back foot. It’s time to take these learnings and drive positive change.
In learning from where women’s sport is a success story and capitalising on the current prominence of sport, there’s huge potential.

Across several years the Commission on the Future of Women’s Sport will be spearheading a shift across the sector, inviting all of its colleagues to join forces in tackling the three big issues to give women more of a sporting chance.
We hope that this is the first step towards a big change in women’s sport, one that all members of the sport shall champion.
