Our Trans and Gender Diverse Inclusion in Sport webinar explores how the sports sector can embed inclusion across their organisations.

The term “neurodiversity” describes the idea that people experience and interact with the world around them in different ways. There is no one “right” way of thinking, learning, and behaving, and differences are not viewed as deficits. This webinar aims to inspire sports organisations, coaches, athletes, and supporters to foster a more inclusive and diverse sporting landscape.

In this webinar we will focus on how inclusive practices can create opportunities for neurodivergent individuals to thrive in sporting environments.  We will provide practical strategies to promote inclusivity and support neurodivergent athletes, coaches, and colleagues.

Banter and microaggressions are keyways in which exclusionary bullying manifests in sport. These are often more subtle forms of exclusion which have enormous impact over time.

Birmingham 2022 was the first ever major multi-sport event to award more medals to women than men. 49% of athletes attending the Olympics in Tokyo were women and 40.5% of athletes attending the Paralympics were women. Whilst this is good news, there is still such a long way to go across the whole spectrum of Sport and Physical Activity, especially when we consider intersectionality.

This webinar will look at gender bias in sport and how that intersects with other characteristics. We will also explore underrepresentation of women in different areas of sport from workforce to participation.

At the 2022 Games in Birmingham we saw George Miller aged 75 years win a gold medal for Scotland in lawn bowls and Anahat Singh, a 14-year-old badminton player, compete for India. It’s not just on the international stage where we see such a diversity of age, but also in classes, clubs, community centres, the countryside, and parks all around the country.

The passion for being active transcends age and generational boundaries.  Nowadays workforces are more likely than ever to be intergenerational: made up of five generations working together. This is even more apparent in sport and Physical Activity where staff, volunteers, officials, and coaches can be from such a broad spectrum of age groups.

In this webinar we will support you to understand the different dynamics of intergenerational environments and how to create inclusive spaces where everyone can thrive.

To ensure sport and physical activity is inclusive we need to think about every aspect. A huge part of this is what we wear to get active. So often poorly thought-out rules and stereotypes around kit hinder participation. In this webinar, we will explore the different ways that kit can impact on participation and provide tips on how to ensure kit can be inclusive.

In this webinar, we will explore the relationship between inclusion and the fan/spectator experience. We will delve into the various aspects of creating an inclusive environment at sporting events, ensuring that everyone feels welcome, respected, and engaged. By understanding the significance of inclusion in the fan/spectator experience, we can foster a sense of belonging and enhance the overall enjoyment for everyone involved. 

How do we create more Inclusive talent/performance development environments and ensure talent pathways are accessible to those with the most potential rather than just those who’ve had the most opportunity. This webinar will explore how you can create more inclusive talent and high-performance environments as well as thinking about how you can ensure the demographic of your pathways can become more representative of the population.

In this webinar, we will explore the relationship between technology, digital platforms, and inclusive practices in the world of sport. It will also delve into the ways in which technology can be harnessed to promote diversity and inclusivity, enhance accessibility, and create equitable opportunities within the sports industry. By examining real-world examples and emerging trends, participants will gain valuable insights into leveraging technology for greater inclusion and accessibility in sports.
