Seasonal gifting!

Struggling with gift ideas for the sporty girl? This Black Friday we wanted to remind you about some of the brilliant brands we work with in the hope you might consider them for the sporty girl or woman in your life this December. We don’t receive any payments for sales or visits to these websites unless you can see a little *.

These are in no particular order …. Get shopping!

Pretty Athletic

Pretty Athletic makes sports toiletries for girls and women and they’re endorsed by many an elite athlete. Skin care, shower care and muscle care – they have you covered and everything is presented in stylish packaging; luxe appearance but functional.

Read our blog about Pretty Athletic and its founder Leyla, here.

There is 30% off everything this week and if you miss out this week, use the We are Girls in Sport* discount code GIRLSINSPORT!

Limitless Bras

These sports bras were designed with school girls in mind – did you know that most school girls don’t wear a sports bra in their PE and games lessons? These bras can be worn under school uniform, they fasten at the front and they’re adjustable for day wear and then when exercising.

Limitless have kindly offered the We are Girls in Sport community 20% off with code WAGIS20 – thanks for the support Limitless team!

bsporty magazine

We love bsporty magazine and of course we adore the We are Girls in Sport supplement option! If you don’t want any ‘stuff’ then this digital sports magazine is a fantastic addition to your gift request list. It’s packed full of stories on sports, both traditional and breakthrough and the We are Girls in Sport* supplement is focussed on girls and girls only, featuring girls who are making it in sport, elite female athletes and covering issues that impact you.

It is UK based at the moment but if there’s demand from overseas then who knows?!

You can sign up here.

Little Big Sports

If you’re looking for sports equipment, this is the place to go. Katie and her team know everything there is to know about the products they stock and the customer service is excellent. Parents – we highly recommend shopping here – read our blog.

Happy Self Journal

We are Girls in Sport cares about your mental health as your physical well-being and we’re big fans of writing stuff down! The Happy Self-Journal is excellent for this thanks to its uncluttered design, inspiring quotations and helpful prompts.

The We are Girls in Sport community has 10% off until next Tuesday 30th November (not long!) so make them a priority after you’ve read about the other great products ….

‘Run Like a Girl’

A source of sporting inspo might be Danielle Brown MBE’s book ‘Run like a Girl’. Paralympic athlete, Danielle, has compiled the stories of 50 inspiring, female athletes to show that you girls can do it too.

We are running a competition to win a copy of ‘Run like a Girl’ so check out our socials tomorrow, Saturday 27 November to be in with a chance!

Soul-Cap

Soul-Cap, the swim cap designed for those with voluminous hair such as Afro hair, have been in the news this year as they were banned from being used by GB swim star Alice Dearing at the 2021 summer Olympics.

We love what they’re doing - swimming is a life skill and should be accessible to all!

Iceni

Periods are not taboo, they’re part of life and we love the rise and rise of period pants. Iceni means warrior and we loved chatting to Vanessa and Francesca about their new range of period pants that are designed around specific sports – they know that there isn’t a ‘one size fits all’. Period pants + a Limitless bra + some Pretty Athletic goodies makes a pretty lovely sporty gift!

For parents …

Girls, if you’re looking for gifts for your sporty parents we can recommend the following books:

‘Stronger’ – Poorna Bell

‘Eat Sweat Play’ – Anna Kessel

‘Game On’ – Sue Anstiss MBE

‘All In’ – Laura Massaro MBE

‘Rise of the Girl’ by our very own co-founder Jo Wimble-Groves

There are many, many more great books but we just haven’t got round to reading them yet!

Happy gifting! Don’t forget to enter our competition for ‘Run like a Girl’, starting tomorrow Saturday 27th!
