Why is sport so important for girls?
-
In the UK, only 22% of girls participate in team sports compared to 69% of boys.
-
Girls aged 8-14 see a 30% drop in confidence levels.
-
Studies have shown that participation in sport is linked to improved confidence, teamwork & leadership positions later in life.
Why Pacesetters?
Girls often feel more comfortable participating in physical activity in supportive, all-girl environments.
At a time when girls’ negative voices start to overpower their confidence, we build them up, create a sense of belonging and encourage healthy habits to support them into their teenage years.
We focus on the social, emotional, and physical well-being of each girl. We tailor sessions to them and their abilities. They form a team and build skills for life.
At the end of the year, they run a 5K alongside their teammates and families. Their smiles as they cross the finish line say it all.
