As sports documentaries fly onto streaming platforms, there is still an overwhelming lack of female protagonists on television. With a clear disparity in team sport dropout rates in the mid-late teens between girls and boys, one thing continues to ring true, you can’t be what you can’t see.

GO BIG’s vision is to normalise and hero the broadcasting and media coverage of women in sports, promote world-class, female role models for future generations, and inspire fully professional basketball in Australia for women.

What we aim to achieve by making this documentary:

• Fully professional basketball in Australia for women

• To broadcast the unheard voices of some of Australia’s most successful athletes

• To generate a greater community understanding of the experiences women face as professional athletes

• To promote greater inclusion and access to sport for women

• To inspire all viewers to persevere through setbacks and pursue their personal and professional goals

• To promote inspiring female role models in sport

What actions we’d like the audience to take after viewing:

• To engage with female sports more consistently

• To view female sport as its own unique product

• To discuss solutions for bridging the salary disparity between genders

• To create more content about women in sport

• To reveal the return on investment potential associated with women’s sport
