Nordiq Canada Women’s Committee is committed to supporting and helping with
female athlete retention in the sport of cross country skiing. The committee recognizes that a
major contributing factor to female athlete motivation to stay in sport is the concept of
relatedness and a sense of belonging.

One of the best ways to increase an athlete’s
relatedness is to value and strengthen a positive team culture. Through this grant(s) we are
looking to provide teams with the resources they need to improve team culture and create a
space where female athletes want to be and want to ski. This grant will help fund a team
building project that your team comes up with.
