    WOMEN IN THE 2018 OLYMPIC AND PARALYMPIC WINTER GAMES: An Analysis of Participation, Leadership, and Media Coverage November 2018 A Women’s Sports Foundation Report www.WomensSportsFoundation.org • 800.227.3988 Foreword and Acknowledgments This report is the sixth in the series that follows the progress of women in the Olympic and Paralympic movement. The first three reports were published by the Women’s Sports Foundation. The fourth report was published by SHARP, the Sport, Health and Activity Research and Policy Center for Women and Girls. SHARP is a research center at the University of Michigan’s Institute for Research on Women and Gender, co-founded by the Women’s Sports Foundation. The fifth report, published in 2017 by the Women’s Sports Foundation, provided the most accurate, comprehensive, and up-to-date examination of the participation trends among female Olympic and Paralympic athletes and the hiring trends of Olympic and Paralympic governing bodies with respect to the number of women who hold leadership positions in these organizations. The sixth report examines the same issues for the 2018 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. It is intended to provide governing bodies, athletes, and policymakers at the national and international level with new and accurate information with an eye toward making the Olympic and Paralympic movement equitable for all. These reports can be found at: https://www.womenssportsfoundation.org/research/articles-and-reports/all/ The Women’s Sports Foundation is indebted to the study authors, Emily Houghton, Ph.D., Lindsay Pieper, Ph.D., and Maureen Smith, Ph.D., whose research excellence brought this project to fruition.

  • 19-23 January 2021 FIS Snowboard World Cup in Slopestyle and Halfpipe Confirmed
    Press release LAAX, Switzerland, 2 October 2020 LAAX announces date for LAAX OPEN 2021: 19-23 January 2021 FIS Snowboard World Cup in Slopestyle and Halfpipe confirmed The LAAX OPEN, Europe’s long-standing and number one snowboarding event, is scheduled for 19-23 January 2021. International snowboard pro riders will take part in the Slopestyle and Halfpipe disciplines in the World Cup on Crap Sogn Gion, where they will demonstrate top-class freestyle skills and vie for points, prize money and prestige. This was confirmed this week during the digital FIS conference. The FIS has announced that the 2020/2021 tour will go ahead thanks to a compact concept, with the freestyle World Cup circuit taking place in the form of a safe bubble through close cooperation with the local organizers. The FIS Snowboard World Cup in LAAX takes place as part of the European package at the beginning of the new year. LAAX has been leading the way in freestyle for over three decades and has been voted the ‘World’s Best Freestyle Resort’ by the public and jury four years in a row at the World Ski Awards. The multiple-awarded resort continues to step forward as a freestyle trailblazer even in extraordinary times and is taking every step necessary to ensure a safe winter season and World Cup. During the summer, LAAX confirmed to its association partners that it would make no compromises when it comes to sport and would continue to organise the competitions for women and men in both Slopestyle and Halfpipe. There is a huge undertaking involved in getting everything set up perfectly, but this decision is a commitment for the riders and their sport.
