WeCOACH is proud to announce our
“MOVE the NUMBERS” Campaign as part of our year-long
Title IX 50th Anniversary celebration.
- Raise the critical funding necessary to support our WeCOACH mission to increase the number of women coaches in all sports & levels
- Increase the number of year-round growth and leadership development programs
- Offer enhanced member benefits to impact a greater number of women coaches in our WeCOACH Community
Prior to Title IX in 1972, over 90% of women’s collegiate sports teams were coached by women. Today, 50 years later, data in the Women in College Coaching Report Card indicates at the NCAA Division I level, that number has decreased to a stagnant 43%, with only 7.3% women coaches of color. According to the NCAA, for all three divisions, 41% of women coach women’s teams, and 5% coach men’s teams. At the youth level, data is hard to estimate, but approximately less than 20% of teams are coached by women.
How to Help MOVE the NUMBERS:
Secure 50 Women Coaches Academy Scholarships (for collegiate coaches) = $1972/year to cover tuition, hotel, travel, meals, & annual WeCOACH membership dues.
