Our priorities at WSRT include celebrating, supporting and advocating for females in sport and recreation in Tasmania. Since WSRT was established in 1987 we have seen significant improvements in all areas of women’s and girls’ sport, however there is still much more to be done.
We want to work with you to drive change and help achieve gender equity in sports governance, administration, coaching and participation. And the first step in doing this is to get a clear understanding of what the current state of play is in Tasmania and how we can support sporting organisations, clubs and associations.
With the support of Active Tasmania, we’ve put together a survey – we invite you to have your say, and help shape sport in Tasmania for females today, and into the future.
Womensport & Recreation Tasmania Inc. (WSRT) is a dynamic group dedicated to improving opportunities in sport and regular physical activity for women and girls.
It is Womensport & Recreation Tasmania's mission to promote, encourage, support, inspire and celebrate regular physical activity for women and girls and to provide a representative voice influencing effective public policy in Tasmania.
