Journal Article
Exploring the impact of Title IX on women’s rights and inclusion in sports
2024
Overview
A pivotal step towards establishing these rights in the United States was Title IX, a federal law introduced in 1972 as an Education Amendment of the 1964 U.S. Civil Rights Act. Before its enactment, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 merely prohibited the discrimination and exclusion of any 'person' on the ground of their race, colour or nationality, from public academic programmes and other federally funded programmes. A further milestone for women athletes was the passing of the 1987 Civil Rights Restoration Act, which allowed students to use Title IX as a statute of reference for seeking monetary damages in cases of sex-related discrimination. The effects of this federal law on women's access to sport are welldocumented, as the number of female athletes and sports professionals has spiked over the years.
