Did you know that 2010 will be a special year for the IWA?
We start a Women Windsurfing Campaign to boost the participation in, and promotion of, women’s windsurfing! [more]
The international Windsurfing Association is focusing on: initiating, stimulating and guiding different projects that support our Mission:
“Encouraging and supporting women, worldwide, to improve their position and increase their participation, in women’s windsurfing competitions.
We are focusing our attention on the following Objectives:
Media
To promote, and increase, the coverage and media-exposure of women in windsurfing.
Events
More, or equal, attention paid to women in competition; creating training opportunities; realizing women only events; and increasing the overall level of achievement in competition.
Sponsorship
To contact potential women’s sponsors.
We have already taken some Action:
“Women’s Representative”
To protect and represent the interest of our female competitors worldwide, and to co-ordinate the Women Windsurfing Campaign, we have appointed a Women’s Representative on IWA. Her name is Mara van der Schaaf.
IWA Women Windsurfing Calendar 2010
One of her ideas has been to introduce powerful women in windsurfing to a broadened audience – via a 2010 Calendar.
“If you have great ideas, or feel that I need to be involved or can assist with projects, please contact me, Mara van der Schaaf.
By realizing a Women Windsurfing Calendar we kick-off this campaign!”
Mara.
Full details on how to get your calendar will be posted on the website soon!
