SCOTTISH WOMEN & GIRLS IN SPORT WEEK 2022
Monday 3 – Sunday 9 October 2022
2022 marks the sixth year we have celebrated the Week. The Week provides an opportunity to increase visibility of women and girls in sport and physical activity, showcase partnerships, raise awareness of the barriers and highlight the many health benefits it can bring.
Active Stirling are proud to support Active Scotland's Scottish Women & Girls in Sport Week 2022 and promote Active Girls month this October in association with sportscotland.
Throughout October we will be sharing content on our social media channels to profile some of the female role models who work with Active Stirling. We will also share information about the wide range of sporting pathways available to women and girls across Stirling and its surrounding communities.
Follow us on social media as we celebrate Women and Girls in Sport this October.
Active Stirling offer a wide range of classes, programmes and services to support women and girls of all ages and abilities to access the sport and physical activity of their choice.
Fitness Classes
Group fitness classes are one of our most popular options, and easiest ways to introduce regular fitness activity into your week. Join our highly-trained and experienced instructors, with classes available for ages 16yrs+ and all levels of ability.
Programmes
Whether you're working to increase your fitness or mobility levels — the benefits of exercise in terms of health and wellbeing are always worth the effort! Have a look at our current programmes and activities.
Services
We also provide a range of other services, support, and resources to help you make physical activity a part of your everyday life.
Club sports
If you are looking for a pathway into sport, Clubs are an excellent option. Not only can you take part in your chosen sport, but you will also be part of a community of like-minded people.

It is often said, you need to see something, to be something.
Throughout October we will be asking women and girls on our social media channels to share their ‘sporting happy place’ and the benefits they gain from Sport, to connect with and inspire other women and girls to take up sport and physical activity.
One lucky entrant will be selected from social media after Monday 31st October.
Usual terms and conditions apply.
