Our team has shown that girls can at the highest level in the province. We now need proper : a safe field, changing rooms and qualified coaches. Above all, schools should divide their sports budgets more between boys’ and girls’ teams.
Scene 4 · A Conference on Gender and Sport
Level band 4 · Advanced (C1)Twenty years later, Fah, now an adviser to the national sports authority, addressed an international conference.
“Women’s sport is still widely regarded as a to the ‘real’ game. Media coverage remains : less than five percent of sports reporting focuses on women. Such invisibility the stereotype that women’s achievements matter less.
Equal investment is not a gesture; it is a question of fairness. Girls who play sport are more likely to stay in school and to leadership roles later in life. The real question is not whether we can afford to invest in girls’ sport, but whether we can afford not to. The cost of is far higher.”
