The Problem

By age 17, girls quit sports at twice the rate of boys.

The Insights

Sports can improve girls’ physical, emotional and mental well-being during their transition to adulthood.

Instead of kid or adult sections, girls aged 12 to 14 years prefer to shop at designated teen sections—something that Nike didn’t have.
