Help us improve breast support in soccer! 🏃‍♀️⚽🏋️‍♀️

We are inviting women aged 18–60 who play soccer (at any level) to take part in an online survey about breast motion discomfort during exercise.

The goal of this study is to better understand which movements & activities cause the most discomfort, so that we can help improve breast support, comfort, and participation in physical activity.

👉 The survey is anonymous
👉 Takes about 8-10 minutes
👉 You’ll be asked about your physical activity, and any discomfort you experience during different exercises, movements, and phases of activity
👉 Share strategies you use to manage or reduce this discomfort.

In appreciation, you’ll be entered into a draw for one of three $50 gift cards! 🎁
