WHY JOIN US?
We’re Funding Student Athletes
⅓ of all membership fees received go directly to support elite amateur athletics through scholarships and program funding.
We Get You
Being an athlete is in your DNA. We understand the discipline, the highs and lows, and the unbreakable spirit that drives you. Here you’ll find your people—women who know what it’s like to give their all on and off the field.
Make a Real Impact
We’ve all seen initiatives start with a bang and fizzle out. We’re committed to making lasting change. Through SHE’S GOT NEXT, your efforts, passion, and voice won’t just be heard—they’ll set the stage for the next generation of women athletes in Canada.
Direct Support for Women’s Sports
It’s no secret that women’s sports have fought hard for recognition and funding. Canadian women’s sports should be celebrated and supported—always. Your participation directly contributes to a brighter, more inclusive future for female athletes.
Open Doors for More Women
We’re here to open doors for current and aspiring female athletes across Canada. By joining us, you’re not just contributing to a more inclusive future for women in sports, you’re actively helping to pave the way for the next wave of female leaders, ensuring they have more opportunities, visibility, and a team of support.
Better Company
Let’s boost our companies with more women in leadership. Studies show that diverse leadership improves decision-making. An EY study found 94% of women in senior corporate leadership played sports. Athletes bring teamwork, resilience, and strategic thinking to the table, making them excellent colleagues and leaders. We want more of this, for ourselves and all Canadian companies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Membership is open to two groups: Women Athletes and Ellevators, our affectionate term for professional women championing women’s sports.
- Women Athletes: This includes current or former elite Canadian women athletes who have competed at the College, University, National, Olympic, Paralympic, Professional, or equivalent levels. These athletes can apply directly for membership.
- Ellevators: These are professional women passionate about elevating Canadian women athletes. Membership in this group requires a referral from a current SHE’S GOT NEXT member.
Apply by clicking the membership link that applies to you. You’ll be directed to create a profile and answer five screening questions. Once submitted, we’ll approve if you were referred by a member. If not, we’ll schedule a quick 15 minute convo with someone from our team. Either way, approval should take place shortly after, and you’ll be welcomed into our online platform to meet our awesome community of athletes and elevators.
SHE’S GOT NEXT is set up as a non-profit society to amplify our impact, enabling us to collectively drive change more effectively. By focusing on collaboration and community support, we can achieve greater things together than individually.
We also have a CHIMP Giving Group, where individuals and organizations will receive a charitable tax receipt for contributions made directly to support athletes through scholarships and programs. Contributions up to $1,000 can be made on our website. Please contact us at admin@shesgotnext.ca for giving amounts over $1,000.
Membership dues are not considered a donation, and members will not get a tax receipt for membership dues.
