31 MAR 2022 · Professor Clare Hanlon is a Research Fellow at the Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, in Melbourne. She recently led a research team that completed a study focused on sport uniforms for girls. After the release of those findings ‘What girls want for sport uniforms’, Cadbury and Women Sport Australia provided $150k grant for clubs to change their sport uniforms for girls using the infographic as a stimulant for clubs. Since this time Clare has received numerous emails from associations, clubs and schools where these insights provided the evidence they needed to change uniform policies and regulations. A workshop will be presented at the upcoming IWG Conference in New Zealand, and this research has become a promotional feature for the Active Lives theme of the conference. A follow up research is expected to soon be launched by the State Minister based on how girls feel who recently changed their sport uniform to one of choice and comfort.

4 MAR 2022 · Portland native Jenny Nguyen is counting down the days to opening the nation’s first women’s sports bar, and will watch her concept of providing a safe social space to watch sport become a reality. For the former basketball player turned chef, the idea of a sports bar for women began as a joke with her girlfriend Liz in 2018, but as the world changed with the impact of a pandemic so Jenny changed her thinking. That this idea could actually be a viable business with restaurant and bar would be a brilliant idea whichever way you looked at it. As a trained chef, the notion of having her own restaurant was a natural career move. And combined with her love of sport and passion for supporting women, Jenny is making it happen. The Sports Bra will open its doors on North East Broadway in early April 2022 and there is sure to be a demand for their signature cocktail—Title IX.
