On Monday 16 March students, players and historians came together at the National Library of Wales, to celebrate the culmination of the Women and Sport: Wales Project, by the Women's Archive of Wales. Since 2023, having received a National Lottery Heritage Fund grant, the Archive has been working on this ambitious and innovative project to record the history of the role of women in sport.
Three years later the project has achieved this aim and a ceremony was held at the National Library to mark the occasion. Alongside the celebration, disks of films and photographs from the project were transferred to the care of the Library and also placed on the People's Collection Wales website. The resources are now preserved for future generations and accessible for all to see, as a lasting legacy of the project’s work.
