Adding 'Sport for Change' Award winner to our resume 🤩 Thank you to the Sports Journalists' Association for awarding this to the Clean Water Sports Alliance after its first year actively tackling the issue of unclean open water in the UK.
🏆 Congratulations to the Clean Water Sports Alliance for winning the Sports Journalists' Association 'Sport for Change' Award for 2024, sponsored by Altair Ltd 👉🏽 https://bit.ly/3ZqGPDb The Alliance is a group of governing bodies calling for clean and healthy open water across the UK. Collectively the organisations represent 450,000 members, athletes and millions of participants and water users who are impacted each and every day by poor water quality and pollution. It was set up earlier this year by British Rowing, British Triathlon Federation, GB Outrigger, Paddle UK, Royal Yachting Association (RYA), Swim England and The Angling Trust with Surfing England, British Kitesport, British Sub-Aqua Club and British Dragon Boat Racing joining in September. Our thanks to Sky Sports' Johnny Phillips and Altair Ltd director of sport Emma Atkins for presenting the award during this evening's #SJA2024 Parliamentary reception. They commented: "Judges said that the Clean Water Sports Alliance’s collaborative approach to tackling poor water quality and pollution could, and should act as a blueprint for other sports organisations to follow as we seek to increase the positive impact of sport on people and the planet, influence key decision-makers and drive positive change."

SheRaces, in partnership with Fund Her Tri UK, has released a report on the experience of women racing triathlon, alongside ways to increase female participation at events. This is welcome research and that is why we worked with SheRACES and Fund Her Tri to ensure our members were able to share their views for this report. The SheRACES commitments announced in this report, if implemented by event organisers, should provide an improved experience for women taking part as well as increased numbers of women and girls participating in triathlon and at events. We are now reviewing the results and recommendations, alongside our own data and feedback from women in our sport, to see how we can further improve women’s experiences in triathlon, working with event organisers, clubs, and our members. Some of the issues raised in the report highlight wider sport and societal issues – triathlon is not immune to these – and we should all be taking a zero-tolerance approach to misogynistic behaviour at events. Triathlon is founded on men and women doing the same distances for the same prize money and we are committed to ensuring both women and men participate at all levels in our sport. The sport is in a great place when it comes to gender equity compared to other many other sports, but there is always more we can do to ensure everyone is welcome and barriers to taking part are mitigated or removed. We are fully committed to doing that. You can read our full response to the report here: https://lnkd.in/eb6_iqpf and the report itself here: https://lnkd.in/d_nSvP62
