While we’ve achieved gender parity in terms of athletes at Olympic Games, there is still a disparity in elite female coaches. Empowering female coaches through programs such as the Women in Sport High-performance pathway program is a critical step forward to changing that.
The IOC is tackling the challenge & creating pathways for more women to reach the highest levels of coaching. The @wish_pathway programme funded by Olympic Solidarity aims to equip over 100 women for coaching at elite levels by 2024. #WomanCoach #InternationalWomensDay2023 #IWD

Worth a read! The legend of former underdog turned Olympic champion continues as Percy Williams’ two historic 1928 Olympic gold medals have returned to the BC Sports Hall of Fame. A huge thank you to the IOC for making the rare exception to replace these. olympic.ca/2023/02/24/percy-…
