Our Story
Fast and Female is a registered Canadian charity on a mission to empower girls through sport, physical activity, and education.
Here For All Girls
Did you know girls are often less likely than boys to engage in sports and maintain their involvement?
According to the Canadian Women and Sport Rally Report (2020), one out of three girls who engage in sports decide to drop out by age 16, in stark contrast to just one out of ten boys of the same age.
We want to change the narrative!
There are three main ways to reverse these trends:
- Engage with girls to create a sense of social belonging
- Prioritize girls’ mental and physical well-being
- Provide relatable role models from local communities
Fast and Female strives to create a safe, inclusive space where girls can be themselves while exploring new sports and physical activities.
How Do We Accomplish This?
Through our evidence-based curriculum crafted by industry leaders, we are on a mission to empower girls aged 8-20, strengthening their confidence and leadership skills.
We firmly believe in the power of REAL (Relatable, Empowered, Active Leaders) Role Models, who serve as inspirations for our participants. These incredible women are passionate about sports and physical activity and help us create girl-centred opportunities for connection and growth.
Our events and programs (in-person and virtual) are developed in collaboration with community partners and like-minded individuals who share our vision.
Fast and Female is committed to creating meaningful connections between girls and REAL Role Models from within their local communities. We strive to create a vibrant and inclusive environment where every girl can thrive, regardless of her background or circumstance.
