enhanced resources
Enhancement of the resources Women In Flight provides to female student-athletes is a top priority for the Oregon Athletic Department. Developments in technology have substantially advanced athletic training and safety. With new ways to track performance, perfect movement, improve communication, and prevent injury, providing technological enhancements to our women’s athletic programs is essential to help female student-athletes achieve their full potential in competition, health, and wellness.
WIDESPREAD INFLUENCE
INSPIRE OTHER INSTITUTIONS
Since the launch of Women In Flight in 2014, our program and the University of Oregon have been pioneers in advancing the support of women’s athletic programs. As other collegiate institutions look to us for inspiration and example, we share best practices and provide guidance to help support female student-athletes across the country.
LEAD THE PACK
There’s power in numbers. Through our “Go Do Anything” message, Women In Flight aims to bring together educational institutions, athletic departments, businesses, and organizations across the nation to collectively celebrate, support, and accelerate women’s athletics.
IMPROVED FACILITIES
Part of enabling our female student-athletes to “Go Do Anything” is creating a home environment. Funds raised through this campaign help provide enhancements for a variety of women’s sports facilities at the University of Oregon. Our biggest projects include the turf at Papé Field, where over 50 student-athletes on the soccer and lacrosse teams compete daily, a home court for the beach volleyball team, and more.
BUILD COMMUNITY

Women In Flight is dedicated to providing sustainable support for the University of Oregon women’s athletic programs. Continued support allows us to sustainably fund all programmatic costs that directly impact our female student-athletes. Your gift helps shape the Women In Flight community for years to come.
DEVELOP COACHES & SUPPORT STAFF
Leadership and mentorship are important aspects of student-athlete development. Your gift helps support our women’s athletics coaches and surrounding staff, enabling them to continue inspiring, guiding, and leading our female-student athletes to success inside and outside their sport.
