February 4, 2017
National Girls and Women In Sports Day

Time: 1:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Location: Brophy Hall Gym and Western Hall Gym
Description: NGWSD, as we like to abbreviate the name for this awesome day, is a national day to recognize the achievements of women in athletics and sports. It is a time to empower and celebrate how far women have come in the field of sports and to encourage young girls and women to continue to be active and participate in sports and athletics.

To celebrate this day, Western Illinois University hosts a day for young girls, between the ages of 9 and 14 years old, in the community to be active and meet female athletes from the WIU Community.

The day consists of games and active activities for the girls to participate in, a panel of current WIU female students, and admission to the WIU Women’s Basketball game.

For more information or to register for this year’s NGWSD celebration, please visit the WIU Women’s Center website at: http://www.wiu.edu/student_services/womens_center/
