Fighting for Gender Equity in Sports

DYK Chicagoan and Olympic medalist hockey player, Kendall Coyne Schofield is fighting for gender pay equity in sports?

She and her husband recently invested in the Chicago Red Stars. “As two professional athletes ourselves, we’ve had two very different experiences in the professional sports world,” Coyne Schofield told reporters. “Our involvement is beyond capital. It’s about bringing awareness to the disparity between men’s and women’s professional sports.” Check out this group of women, including Schofield that have made an impact on and off the field in their sport. We would love to hear what women you celebrate, not just during this month, but all year round. Who would you add to this list?
