Event Recap: 2025 WLS Convention

This month, Uncommon Sports Group sponsored USG Member Natalie Osborne to attend the annual Women's Leaders in Kansas City, Missouri. Natalie is pursuing a career in athletics, currently at George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon. Check out her testimony of how the Lord moved at the event!

"I had the incredible opportunity to attend the Women Leaders in Sports National Convention this year, made possible through the generous funding of USG. The convention was held near the WLS headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri. I have attended this convention before and have stayed involved with a mentor through the organization, but this event was such a great opportunity to reconnect with women I know and encourage one another in our current roles.

I unexpectedly ran into another USG member (who I originally met at WLS 2023) and we got to catch up over the weekend. I also saw my fiancé’s coworker, which was a sweet connection. Overall, this event provided such a great time of rest and restoration in community. I also got to be an ambassador for the Lunch with Leaders and Legends, facilitating conversations with women in several different roles. I left the event feeling encouraged, supported, and more educated in the unique challenges for women in the sports world. I hope to attend next year and continue these connections!"
