National Women’s Sports Week, observed annually during the week of June 23[1], recognizes female athletes — past, present, and future — for their achievement in sport. First established in 2022 by Independent Women’s Forum and its grassroots membership arm Independent Women’s Network, National Women’s Sports Week coincides[2] with the anniversary of Title IX, the landmark law that guarantees equal educational opportunities for both sexes.
Title IX, transformed sports by guaranteeing women and girls the right to equal athletic opportunities. Before Title IX, only one in 27 girls participated in sports.[3] Today, participation is booming with more than two in five playing.[4]
To observe National Women’s Sports week, Americans and companies that support female athletes and single-sex competition champion female athletes for their teamwork, resilience, and success; honor the coaches and parents who support female athletes; and fight to ensure the continuation of single-sex athletic competition.
The hashtag #WomensSportsWeek[5] is used on social media.
While unrelated to the registered national days in America, the UK also has a National Women's Sports Week[6] during June 1st-8th annually.
