Temple Hosts Annual National Girls and Women in Sports Day Event

2.23.24 | General, Cheerleading, Diamond Gems

To recognize the achievements of girls and women in sports and to encourage girls in Philadelphia to participate in sports and fitness activities, Temple Athletics celebrated National Girls & Women In Sports Day with three events on February 7, 2024. Our events took place along with more than 1,000 events taking place throughout the country and with those in our local community. 
To start off the day, there was a networking breakfast for local Temple Athletics Alumni and current student-athletes. This included breakfast and open dialogue and discussion among the participants.
 
Our second event was a panel discussion for local high school girls. Temple Women's Sport Student-Athletes hosted a lunch (sponsored by Temple University's Sport, Tourism, and Hospitality Management program) to discuss the transition to college, expectations for participation in a varsity sport, and provide the girls a tour of campus.
 
To round out our day, there was a fun, free clinic for girls in 8th grade and under from select Philadelphia-area schools and after-school programs. Participants enjoyed mini-clinics given by Temples Division 1 student-athletes from every varsity sport program, including cheer and dance.
