Quote: “When parents are asked, ‘What do you want for your child when they are older,’ they will often say ‘confidence’ or ‘resilience.’ And both of these qualities can be gained from playing sports. (Elizabeth, 12 years old)
If there was one thing in a girl’s life that could lead to a healthier lifestyle, help her build time-management skills, ensure she is less likely to be sad or depressed, be more likely to have strong relationships with friends, and more likely to say she is smart enough to pursue her dream career, wouldn’t every parent tune in to learn about that magic potion? All the data suggests that there is one gamechanger that might impact everything on that list and more: engaging in athletics during pre-teen and teenage years.
Listen to Martha Perry, Head of School at St. Clement’s School in Toronto, Canada, and Tilly Rigby, St. Clement’s School alum and winner of the Arthur Ashe Leadership and Sports Award, as they talk with host Trudy Hall about how and why sports participation positively impacts nearly every single aspect of a girl's life–not just in her teen years, but throughout the rest of her life. The good news is that these benefits are not just for the athletic superstars; they are the rewards a girl gets simply from getting into the game.
