Getting Girls Active
 
 
  
  
Girls are significantly less
active than boys. You have
the opportunity to help girls
and young women in your community open doors to a
lifetime of physical activity
and good health.
   
 
  
Use some of the recommended book titles to initiate discussion and to inspire girls to read and get moving. This is your chance to make a difference and help get inactive girls active.

  • ensure girls and young women enjoy their participation
  • provide female-only opportunities
