These awards are the latest initiative in the State Government’s commitment to backing women in sport and will continue the work of helping ensure girls and women can equally and actively participate in the sport they love.

The awards will showcase individuals, clubs, associations, and State sport and recreation organisations who are implementing programs and initiatives which empower girls and women to pursue their sporting passions and help to advance gender equality – in sport and everywhere.

Nominations are open in the following categories:

• The Power of Her – Emerging Leader
• The Power of Her – Media Champion
• The Power of Her – Sponsor Champion
• The Power of Her – Champion Local Club – Metropolitan
• The Power of Her – Champion Local Club – Regional
• The Power of Her – Outstanding Organisation
• The Power of Her – Champion of Change

The awards further add to the legacy of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup when The Power of Her concept was introduced through a remarkably successful ‘Women in Leadership Symposium’ where more than 1,000 attendees came together to advance gender equality.

Nominations are open today and will close on Tuesday 11 February 2025, with award winners announced at an International Women’s Day event to be held on Wednesday 12 March 2025.
