Australia’s female athletes have some uncomfortable truths for us

Australia’s female athletes have some uncomfortable truths for us

Published 2 months ago
Description

The ABC spoke to more than 150 elite athletes to get an understanding of their experience with sport and the testimonies don't paint a rosy picture. Underpaid, underappreciated, overworked, lacking support. Online abuse, in-person mistreatment, racism, sexism… the picture isn’t pretty… understanding it is pretty important. Featured: Amanda Shalala, senior journalist, ABC Sport.
