Being yourself shouldn't be a barrier to reaching your potential. Megan Rapinoe reminds us that athletes can lead with courage, authenticity, and purpose, both on and off the field. ⚽ #MotivationalMonday #YouCanPlay #MeganRapinoe

Athlete well-being matters just as much as performance. The NCAA's student-athlete well-being research reminds us why mental health deserves attention in every sports program. Supporting athletes means caring about the person, not just the player. #StudentAthleteMentalHealth

Sports are always evolving. Great coaching evolves with them. From new technology to changing team dynamics, staying curious and willing to learn helps coaches better support the next generation of athletes. #YouCanPlay #CoachEducation #SportsLeadership

Great teams are built on more than talent. They're built on trust, respect, and the courage to stand up for one another. ⚽ Let's keep creating a sports culture where every athlete belongs. #MotivationalMonday #YouCanPlay #Soccer

86% of gay and 89% of lesbian youth surveyed reported staying at least partly closeted with teammates. No young athlete should have to choose between being part of the team and being themselves. This Halloween, the scariest thing shouldn’t be telling your teammates who you are.

“It’s just a joke” doesn’t erase the impact. Jonas Worth talks about why we need to stop normalizing antisemitic, homophobic, and racist language and how everyday words help shape the culture of a team. #YouCanPlay #InclusiveSport #TeamCulture #StopHate #LGBTQSports

What gets lost when transgender athletes become a political talking point? The athletes themselves. Ren talks about the real people behind the headlines and what young people can lose when access to sport becomes a battleground. #YouCanPlay #TransAthletes #YouthSports

Trans people belong in sport. 🏳️‍⚧️ As athletes. As coaches. As fans. As officials. As teammates. As leaders. Sport is stronger when everyone has the opportunity to participate and belong. #YouCanPlay #TransPeopleBelong #TransAthletes

66% surveyed believed openly LGBT people wouldn’t be very safe as sports spectators. Fans deserve to belong, too. Creating inclusive sport means thinking beyond the athletes on the field and building environments where everyone can cheer safely and openly. #YouCanPlay

23% of gay men and 13% of lesbians surveyed reported experiencing physical assaults in sport. Sport should challenge athletes, not threaten their safety because of who they are. We can build something better. #YouCanPlay #SafeSport #LGBTQSports #SportForAll

Inclusion doesn’t happen only on the field. Administrators shape policies, expectations, resources, and the culture athletes experience every day. Creating safer sport requires leadership at every level. #YouCanPlay #SportsLeadership #InclusiveSport #LGBTQSports

School sports should be a place where every kid can build confidence, teamwork, and belonging. Prop 134 goes too far and takes decisions away from parents, schools, and athletic experts. Let our kids play. Vote NO on Prop 134. familiesnotpolitics.com

We had J Solle from FrontRunnersNY come on our podcast recently to talk about gender non-conforming considerations in running sports. Here's a quick bit about the legacy of the NYC Pride Run and how amazing orgs like FRNY are carrying it forward!
