Women remain under-represented in organised sport in Australia, both on and off the field. In 2024, while women made up 50 per cent of the total population, only about 24 per cent participated in weekly sport. Representation in leadership roles was also limited with around 43 per cent of team managers and 36 per cent of coaches or instructors as women. In this first episode of the 'IWD 2026' podcast series, three Australian sports leaders of Indian origin discuss the progress and ongoing challenges in women’s sports.
