Women in Sport: Stories that move us
Women’s sport may be making headlines today, but its rise has been decades in the making—built on determination, innovation, and resilience.
From backyard games to national leagues, the journey of women in Australian rules football, cricket, and basketball is filled with powerful stories. That’s why the WA Museum launched the Women in Sport project, capturing the personal stories of obstacles and opportunities that resonate across all sports and the meaningful objects that form part of this evolution.
Discover how this project goes beyond traditional collecting practices and be among the first to see what has been uncovered!
Join WA Museum curators Kylie Elston and Monika Durrer as they share stories of the trailblazing women who challenged discrimination and developed creative ways to ensure girls and women could play the sports they love.
Women's rise in sport is a story that is still unfolding, come join us for this chapter.
