Media attention for new Tucker Center report
A report released today by the Tucker Center for Research on Girls & Women in Sport shows that girls are participating in sports in record numbers, but their participation in physical activity outside of organized sports is declining, especially as they move from childhood into adolescence. The report will be highlighted in an upcoming lecture 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m., April 22, in the Cowles Auditorium of the Hubert Humphrey Center.
