Words from Our Members

Connect with thousands of female coaches around the Globe

“I support the FCN for the obvious reasons, if we don’t support ourselves, we will not move forwards. This network is making a difference to women in sport leadership roles, coaching roles and because of this, every aspect of sport will improve. If sport can get it right, the world will be in a better place, why? Because sport saves lives…full stop.”

Carla Nicholls

Paralympic Head Coach, Athletics Canada

“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.”

Jane Figueiredo

“Thank you for bringing us all together, it always feels good to get to relate to other female coaches. Thank you for the development and resources.”
