Notable figures like Patrick Mahomes are also championing the cause, advocating for equal recognition and better compensation in women's sports. Today’s discussion focuses on the systemic barriers that continue to restrict women’s sports and explores potential solutions to bridge this gap, ensuring fair and equal opportunities for all collegiate athletes. Join us as we tackle these important issues and highlight the steps needed to achieve gender equality in sports.
