Taking place Saturday, November 15th, 2025, this highly anticipated event will take place at the Grotto Bay Hotel, bringing together athletes, coaches, mentors, and community leaders not only from Bermuda but the Caribbean and USAfor an engaging mix of interactive workshops, storytelling, and sport-inspired activities. The event banquet will feature guest speaker, legendary Jamaican sprinter Asafa Powell.
Building on the success of the previous initiatives promoting and supporting gender equity, Equity In Motion aims to encourage participation and leadership in sport, highlight Bermudian role models and international guest speakers, foster mentorship between generations of athletes and professionals, and advance gender equity and inclusion within Bermuda’s sporting community.
“This event is about more than sport — it’s about showing our girls that they belong in every arena, on and off the field,” said Donna Raynor, Chair of the Gender Diversity and Inclusion.
“We want them to see possibility, confidence, and community reflected in every story they hear that day.”
