Fast and Female Champ Chats

Fast and Female Champ Chats

Self-identified girls ages 8-14 are invited to a 3-4 hour event, called a Fast and Female Champ Chat where they will be inspired by our REAL (Relatable, Empowering, Active Leaders) Role Models to stay active in sports and have fun!

Girls are placed in age-appropriate groups with a Role Model to enjoy high-quality face-to-face time with each other and our Role Models (approximately 1 Role Model for every 10 girls).

There are three parts to the event:

  1. A physical activity circuit, led by local organizations and our Role Models
  2. Inspirational chat with our Role Models
  3. Group physical activity to end the day. Blast the music, celebrate and feel awesome

To create an inclusive team atmosphere, each girl receives a Fast and Female t-shirt to match their Role Model’s t-shirt.

Target Audience

8-18 year olds

# of Participants

30-100 girls

Champ Chat FAQ

I'm interested in joining the movement to empower girls through sports - What does it take to become a Presenting Partner of a Champ Chat?

We are committed to keeping girls healthy and active in sports through their teens and are delivering Champ Chats on an event-by-event basis that gives each event the opportunity to have its own Presenting Partner. Each Champ Chat will need a Corporate Partner. If you’re interested in taking the next steps to get involved, please fill out our contact form.

Are registration fees included in the presenting partnership package?

The partnership package includes up to 100 complimentary registration tickets for participants.

How long does it typically take to get one of these inspiring event in motion? Is there a deadline?

We require 3 months of planning time to ensure that each Champ Chat is as successful as possible. Event planning begins when we process partnership agreements and our standard timeline is that the Champ Chat will take place no less than 3 months after the presenting partner has been confirmed. Our Event Coordinators need that time to get a great venue, work with our REAL Role Models to confirm their schedules, plan an EPIC day of empowering programming and fun, and of course, to promote the event by engaging with various community groups and teams. Our goal is quality. We want to make sure that every Champ Chat is impactful and excellent!

**We’ve been known to hustle extra hard to deliver events in shorter timelines, so if you have a VERY compelling case, we’re all ears**

I love that you have so many inspiring role models! If I present/host an event, is it guaranteed that an Olympian or Paralympian will attend my event?

Our REAL Role Models generously volunteer their time and we are very understanding of their busy schedules (that’s why they’re so inspirational, right!?!). We are not able to guarantee that an Olympic or Paralympic Role Model will be available to attend, but if you have a Role Model in mind that you’d like to engage, we’re happy to try to make that work when we begin planning your event. While we agree that Olympians and Paralympians are SUPER inspirational, we also know that the biggest impact our Role Models can have is a personal connection with a participant – this is how we change lives. We believe that stories of resilience, goal-setting, overcoming obstacles, and reaching for big dreams are inspirational no matter which Role Model is telling them!

I love what Fast and Female is doing and want to get involved, how can I do that without putting on a Champ Chat?
