The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the establishment of the Women’s Sports Union, which is a not-for-profit organisation launched and led by Olympic medallist Sharron Davies MBE alongside Tracy Edwards MBE; notes that it focuses on fair and safe sport for women and girls, championing the right of every biological female to participate in sports regardless of age, race, ability or background; recognises that the core mission of the Women’s Sports Union is to protect and grow spaces where women and girls are seen, heard, supported, celebrated and given their sex-based rights to equal opportunity while also seeking to restore, strengthen and future-proof single-sex sports categories at all levels, and grow and cultivate better sporting opportunities for all females of all ages; understands that the Women’s Sports Union is supported by a coalition of respected sportspeople, legal experts and policymakers, and calls on all the sport bodies to abide by the mission and the principles of the Women’s Sports Union.
