Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women, with nearly half of women over the age of 20 living with some form of it. With awareness and education, more lives can be saved.

The 19 coaches who are a part of Go Red for Women’s Hearts on the Court Collective are stepping off the sidelines and highlighting the ways women can be on the offense of their heart health.

Join our coaches and take charge of your health today by knowing your risk, embracing a healthy lifestyle, and advocating for your care. Because every woman deserves to live longer and healthier.

I know firsthand how important heart health is. By coming together to highlight the ways that heart disease can be prevented, we are working to champion women’s health and empower the next generation of female athletes and those they love to take charge of their well-being.” -Kim Mulkey
