What Our Champions Say
"Sexism has been gravity for women's sports, holding us back. We still have so much work to do. It'll take people - all of us - saying, hey, we're going to defy gravity, so let's do it."
Tara VanDerveer
Former Head Coach, Stanford University Women's Basketball, WCA Champion
"You cannot be what you cannot see. Having women be coaches and having young athletes see these women as role models and exemplars of what could be, what can be, ultimately will be."

What Our Community Partners Say
WCA’s experience in growing a female-based organization around sports has been crucial in helping us appeal to female audiences and grow a successful softball program. We highly recommend any youth sports organization looking to build a highly reputable and successful program to pursue a partnership with WCA. Overall, there was noticeably more player participation and retention on the WCA-coached teams in comparison to the non-WCA teams, and the family engagement with the WCA-coached teams was also stronger.
