The_Nike_Project

The Nike Project Gareth Ward Research has shown (Nike Project 2002) that between the age of 14 to 16, over 40% of young women stop taking part in sport. Consider the reasons for this Women participation in sport is a modern day topic that evokes much discussion. The levels of women’s participation in sport are increasing but levels of participation are not as great as their male counterparts. The Nike project has found that the major age group where women participation levels fall is between 14-16. This is to be expected due to the removal of compulsory physical education from the national curriculum at this age, but the levels of young women choosing to continue to participate in sport, at any level, are low.
