#itsmymove

It’s a fact that young women are doing less physical activity than young men of the same age. Young women spend less time per week being physically active than young men. There is a 17% gap at age 16 and a 28% gap at age 17. But why?

#itsmymove explores factors like judgement, lack of confidence and fear of failure that are barriers to increasing participation by young women. Become part of the #itsmymove movement and help young women to be active and healthy their way. Here’s how: 

• As a sector leader or provider, explore the research and understand what matters and what motivates young women 
• As a parent or caregiver, understand your role in supporting young women in the world of sport and recreation 
• As a young woman, move your own way and discover the many ways to be active
