Sport has been a powerful tool for women’s empowerment around the world. From fighting for gender equality in sport to promoting women’s self-confidence and self-esteem, sport has proven to be a source of empowerment for women in many areas of their lives.

We can say, it has also been a key battleground for gender equality. For decades, women have fought for the right to participate in sports and compete on equal terms with men. In many countries, women still face barriers in accessing sports and in funding women’s teams. However, many women have fought and made significant progress in the fight for gender equality in sport.

In addition to being a means to fight for gender equality, sport has proven to be a powerful tool to promote self-confidence and self-esteem in women. By giving them the opportunity to discover their strengths and abilities, it helps them build a positive self-image and develop a strong mindset, which in turn enables them to face challenges and achieve goals both on and off the pitch.

It also works as an effective tool to promote teamwork, cooperation and decision making. In sports, women work together to achieve a common goal, which helps them develop leadership skills and make important decisions. Additionally, women who participate in sports learn to accept defeat and overcome obstacles, which helps them develop a mindset of perseverance and resilience.

Another benefit of sport for female empowerment is the development of physical and mental abilities, offering the opportunity to develop physical and mental abilities, such as strength, resistance and discipline.

These skills are not only valuable for sport, but are also valuable day by day and those are the pillars of our Goleadoras´ programs.
