A new report examining leadership positions in top international sports organizations points to a significant lack of female representation, especially at the top levels.?The 2016 International Sports Report Card on Women in Leadership Roles was published by The Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport (TIDES) at the University of Central Florida on Wednesday.The study, TIDES first report card on representation of women in leadership roles in international sport, gave the International Olympic Committee (IOC) a D+ for representation of women in leadership roles, while international federations -- FIFA (1.5 percent), International Ice Hockey Federation (0 percent) -- and regional zone confederations each received an F. The United States Olympic Committees B- was the highest mark awarded.The IOCs calls for gender equality across sport have had no teeth, said Richard Lapchick, primary author of the report. The international federations must improve the percentage of female representation. It is unacceptable that only 5.7 percent of international federation presidents, 12.2 percent of vice presidents, and 13.1 percent of executive committee members are women.As the number of women competing in international competition has increased, their representation in leadership roles has lagged. There are only two women presidents of international federations, and women fill only 12.2 percent of vice president positions. While the United States delegation is sending more women to the Olympics than any other nation in history, the USOC has women represented in only 31 percent of governance roles.Even so, when compared to data from previous TIDES reports, that is less than the percentage of women in professional roles in the league offices of the NBA, MLB, MLS, the WNBA and at the NCAA headquarters, Lapchick said.Americans Anita DeFrantz and Angela Ruggiero are members of the 90-member IOC executive committee. DeFrantz was named the first female vice president of that group in 1997Dr. Lapchicks exhaustive and powerful report reveals an important and sobering truth: While the number of women who play sports around the world has grown, the number who influence and lead key sports organizations remains dishearteningly low, said Val Ackerman, commissioner of the Big East Conference, and founding president of the WNBA.TIDES is part of the DeVos Sport Business Management graduate program in the University of Central Floridas college of business administration. TIDES releases the Racial and Gender Report Card as an assessment of hiring practices of women and people of color for a number of leagues, including the NBA, NFL, MLB, MLS and WNBA.?Lapchick periodically writes for and appears on ESPN.
