Outline
In Hong Kong, young girls usually participate less in sports outside the classroom than boys. Teenage girl athletes usually come across more challenges as they face gender discriminations and the differences in their physical fitness to the boys. They are lacking the opportunities to participate, the positive feedback from society and supporting networks.
 
WISE HK Sports Leadership Program targets teenage girls aged between 14 to 18, wishing to encourage them to plan and lead various sports activities through immersive learning and training. This programme aims to enhance their confidence and nurture their leadership skills and sensitivity. Participants will be able to engage the community, speak up for their rights and bring a positive impact to society.
