Football NSW supports University research in to women’s sport  

Even though the number of females participating in sport as players and coaches has increased over the last few years, there is some evidence to show that males and females have very different experiences, feelings and obstacles in playing or coaching sport.  

We are inviting you to participate in a study to compare male and female coaches’ and players’ experiences in sport.

This study is being conducted by honours students Nadia Hermas and Christopher Hale under the supervision of Drs Heather Douglas and Kotryna Fraser from the University of Newcastle, Australia.

The research aligns with government policies and the International Olympic Committee’s guidelines for enhancing the opportunities for both male and female coaches and players who are passionate about sport.

The research includes a 15-minute online survey for you to complete.

For more information, including researchers’ contact details, and to access the web survey, please visit: https://uonpsychology.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0kBXSObgYW3ptu5

Football NSW encourages as many eligible female coaches and players to participate.
