Sports training for disadvantaged children

Sport for all! The enthusiasm and opportunity to participate in sports should not be restricted by gender, physical and mental disabilities, class or environment. Everyone can enjoy sports on the field to achieve true sports equality. We hope that more children gain self-affirmation from sports and believe that they can do it. "Sports" make us better people. So far we held

Girls! Hit it out! New Taipei Girls Baseball Camp

Cooperating with the social bureau, we invited disadvantaged families in priority, with a total of 75 girls standing on the baseball field to experience playing baseball. The purpose is not making them play baseball in the future, but leading them to understand that sports participation should not be restricted by gender, and that when encountering various choices in the future, they would not be restricted by gender and would be able to choose the life they want according to various factors such as interests and abilities. A one-day experience wouldnot change their lives, but we hope the girls know the future lies in their own hands. Let's "strike it out" together!

Lunbei Girl's Happy Baseball Classroom

We integrated the concept of gender equality into technical courses, umpires, anchors, support and checkpoints. The professional "Douliu Baseball Stadium" was rented, and the jerseys were hung one by one in the "Pro Baseball Players' Lounge", so every children receive their own "No. 10" jersey as a wish for everyone to become their own captain. In addition, we invited players from the Beitou Junior High School Girl's Softball Team who have been supported by the Association to serve as assistant coaches to help children better experience baseball. We see that when children are provided with "individual respect" and opportunities to lead, they can transform the support they received into the strength to help others.

LLB Challenger Cup Charity Competition for Children with Disabilities

We held fun baseball gender equality games, leading children to reflect on various gender stereotypes hidden in society, to discover external or self-restrictions because of gender in life, to develop self-potential, and to pursue their dreams without gender restrictions. We also hoped that children with disabilities such as rare diseases and cerebral palsy become "challengers" in these games, and enjoy the fun of baseball. In addition to providing opportunities for families of the disabled to go outdoors and giving parents a respite, the games also cultivate children's teamwork and perseverance in facing challenges to promote their physical perception and motivation to rehab.

Inspiration, Support and Companionship Program for Children and Young Athletes

Athletes in primary and secondary schools are in the stage of rapid physical and mental development. In addition to the supply and supplement of physical nutrition, the learning and accumulation of basic knowledge, as well as the exploration and thinking of future career development are extremely critical during this periods.
Therefore, in addition to providing tuition and fees,

, nutritional subsidies and transportation allowances, trying to supplement the physical aspects of children and young athletes, taking care of women's physical needs, we provide
Tutors Accompanying
,
Life Foreign Language Course
and
Sports Protection and Self-protection Workshop
.
By helping these athletes stay in the team and campus, they can pitch balls, swing hard, and receive stable education. So that these disadvantaged children have the opportunity to change, and they can bravely imagine their future and life.

Life Support

Government and school funds are mostly limited to use for competitions, equipment or facilities, but students have nothing to rely on for basic daily necessities such as school miscellaneous expenses, school supplies, personal equipment, three meals a day, toothbrushes and sanitary napkins, and so on. Taiwan Sports Forward Association invites everyone to regularly donate 1,500 NTD per month to support disadvantaged children and athletes to continue their education and live a stable life.

Tutors Accompanying

We subsidize the supplemental teachers in sports teams, so that children and young athletes who usually need to take leaves for practices and competitions due to sports events can study with tutoring to prevent them from low academic achievements because of absence in classes which often leads to loss of learning confidence and interest.

Life Foreign Language Course

Through the lecturers with different backgrounds and foreign language abilities invited by the association, students see different career experiences and choices, and learn from positive role models. Course activities combining foreign languages help students to no longer be afraid of using different languages, to discover the fun of learning languages, and to broaden their knowledge from differences cultures. We hope that not only can children learn new languages, but that they can see a wider world through these courses, and believe they will definitely have the opportunities to go abroad.

Sports Protection and Self-protection Workshop

In order to establish the correct knowledge of self-protection for children and young athletes, and to avoid affecting their sports career due to insufficient sports protection concepts, or being misled and deceived into suffering sexual harassment or sexual assault, the association promote sports protection courses and camps. Lecturers teach and share professional sports protection knowledges, integrating gender education and both emotional and physical development into activities, so as to improve the correct sports protection knowledge, reduce the occurrence of sports injuries, and establish children and young athletes with complete physical boundaries and concepts of self-protection to reduce the chances of sexual harassment and sexual assault. The workshop is divided into three major areas: sports protection, autonomous boundaries, and emotional and physical development. Professional lecturers are invited.

Force for Boob: Help Girls Exercise Comfortably

Many girls give up or reduce their participation in sports due to discomfort or embarrassment after breast development. In addition to reducing the restrictions on women's participation in sports, sports underwear is also a must-have item for children and young athletes. However, they may not be able to possess one due to economic or intellectual factors. That's why we launched Force for Boob Charity Project to support 1,000 girls who want to exercise. With fundraising and matchmaking resources, we help them start with "one suitable sports underwear", so that physiology would no longer be an obstacle for them to exercise. At the same time, we introduce body hygiene education workshops. Through promoting the concept and use of "sports underwear", we advocate women's sports hygiene knowledge, so that more people understand the situations women may face when they exercise.

Media Experience and Women's Sport Development Across Generations

According to statistics from the United Nations, women account for 40% of the total number of professional athletes, but reports on women's sports only account for "4%" exposed by all sports media. The proportion is quite disparate and unbalanced. Therefore, we want to discuss the influence of media to promote gender equality. We invited the Asian Special Agent of World Baseball Softball Confederation Boston Wang, TSNA professional sports news team executive Lindsey Cho, and Chun-Yao Pan, the co-founder of Taiwan's first women's basketball-themed media platform Double Pump, to share how sports media view female athletes and women's sports events in sport fields.

Rare Female Figures in International Sports Organizations

Why are women still often a relatively small minority in international sports organizations? Do women who participate in international organizations lack opportunities or lack capabilities? And what are the difficulties and advantages of women participating in international sports organizations? So we invited relevant practitioners, Wu Lunxian, secretary-general of the Republic of China Skating Association who has long been involved in the cultivation of international sports talents, Qi Helen, executive member of the Asian Sports Journalists Alliance AIPS ASIA, and Liu Baijun, winner of the 2019 International Olympic Women and Sports World Award, to share their experiences , From which to gain the courage to continue to promote the level of sports.

Sports Diplomacy: Taiwan-USA Collaboration on Building the Asia-Pacific Gender Equality in Sports Exchange Platform

As a joint support project of "Seeing Gender in Sports" with the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT), the U.S. Department of State, and the Global Sports Mentoring Program (GSMP), we will continue to take root in Taiwan and expand our influence. Through Taiwan-US cooperation, we will jointly build an Asia-Pacific sports Flat communication platform. Four major themes are set, namely "Sports Media and Gender Equality", "Sports Diplomacy", "Seeing Gender in Sports" and "Sports and Education". International and Taiwanese VIPs are invited to share experiences and exchanges on the themes, and will The work achievements since the establishment of the association are jointly arranged in the venue of the forum in the form of an exhibition, and the follow-up "exhibition" will continue to cooperate with other units to strive to be exhibited in Twin Oaks, Washington, USA.

Videos and eBooks

The series plan includes 10 textbooks and 5 short films. The themes of the textbooks start from common gender issues in the field of sports, including the introduction of concepts and situations such as gender stereotypes, sexism, bullying, and multiple genders. Short film presented. It is hoped that through the development and application of a series of teaching materials and resources in relevant education and research, it will help sports coaches and staff in related fields to better understand the importance of gender equality.

Baseball for Palestine, Love from Taiwan

In the Gaza corridor of Palestine, there are a group of children who are very serious and devoted to baseball and softball even though the war is raging and precarious! Sports and baseball should belong to everyone who enjoys them. Therefore, a plan is launched to invite donations to support. The association will produce jerseys, shorts and key rings that symbolize the friendship between Taiwan and Pakistan.
