About WIN for KC

The Women’s Intersport Network for Kansas City (WIN for KC), was established in 1994 with the mission to empower girls and women through advocating and promoting the lifetime value of sports and fitness, while providing opportunities for participation and leadership development. WIN is a volunteer, membership-driven organization that operates as a program under the umbrella of the Kansas City Sports Commission and Foundation.

WIN for KC exists because its volunteers and contributors believe in the physical and emotional wellbeing of girls and women through involvement in sports and fitness. WIN for KC events and programs include participation and networking opportunities, leadership seminars, and promotions of women’s events. WIN also recognizes girls and women’s contributions to sport and advocates for equal opportunities.

Studies show that girls and women who play sports have a more positive body image and experience higher states of psychological well-being than girls and women who do not play sports (Women’s Sports Foundation 2001).
