We Engage
We engage with coaches, athletes and organisations around the globe, building networks and providing supportive platforms for them to connect, share, and develop.
Our network is one of the biggest in the world of performance sports. It is seen as a safe space for our members, enabling them to openly speak up and share their visions on how to create real change in sport.
We Change
We work with sports federations to create change in their coaching landscape, developing an equitable culture for male and female coaches.
Working alongside brands including UK Athletics, World Athletics, Tottenham Hotspur, WHOOP, and Nike, we consult with organisations, teams and federations to drive change in sports systems for a more efficient, effective and safer coaching environment.
We Support
We support our partners in creating their own change for female athletes, coaches, and leaders in their respective sports.
We’ve helped organisations such as Gazing RED2BLUE, World Athletics, Athletics Canada, ALTIS, the Olympic Federation of Ireland, and the USA Women’s National Soccer Team to implement new opportunities and policies to empower female coaches across the world.
We also support and empower female coaches to be the best they can be by providing them with unique opportunities to connect, share and develop.
What Our Network Says…
“Coaches and leaders need more support. This amazing collaboration between the Female Coaching Network and Whoop aligns with my own mission to help women worldwide break the cycle of energy highs and lows and show up as the best version of themselves. It was my great privilege to provide mindset tools and strategies to optimise their own health for sustained high performance.”

Charlotte Fisher
Paralympic Endurance Coach, GB &NI“I didn’t feel like coaching was the way I wanted to go any more. But having these women around me, like Vicky, it’s given me a lot of courage. It reminded me that there’s more to coaching than just the daily grind. This group is on the same journey as me. They understand me and I understand them.”
Jane Figueiredo
