Her Sport Her Way

This four-year strategy aims to build a stronger sport sector where women and girls are valued, recognised and have equal choices and opportunities to lead and participate. It provides a clear role for the NSW Government to work with the sector and new partners in innovative ways to shape the future of women’s sport.

Her Sport Her Way builds on the momentum in women’s sport and looks through a female lens at the way that sport in NSW is delivered, coached, marketed, led, sponsored and consumed. 

Featuring 29 initiatives across four strategic pillars of participation, places and spaces, leveraging investment, and leadership - Her Sport Her Way seeks to increase women's and girl's participation as players, leaders and coaches, improve facilities, and attract more investment and recognition for women's sport.

Her Sport Her Way is a key action under the whole-of-government NSW Women’s Strategy 2019-2022.

Year Four Action Plan

This plan has a clear priority of encouraging adolescent girls to stay in sport, recognising, celebrating and advancing women leaders in sport, event legacy from major women’s sporting events and prioritising funding for female friendly facilities in NSW.
