Exploring the Underrepresentation of Women Coaches in Canadian University Sport

Currently, there are disproportionally few women who hold coaching positions within Canadian university sport. To investigate the gender gap, Dr. Hayley Baker's research explores the institutional practices that inform women coaches' working realities. In her talk, Dr. Baker will describe the taken-for-granted nature of university sport, calling for a more nuanced understanding of women's work in coaching to address gender disparity and diversify leadership in this space.
