So the Women’s Sport Trust seems to have succeeded at getting their message to go viral and heard by many large sport organisers.
The group have now managed to get many women banned from doing their job roles for the sake of how they claim it portraits women badly.

The Women’s Sport Trust says its issue is with the use of models in sports such as walk-on girls, grid girls and ring girls as the message its giving out a bad view on how women are valued in our society.
They claim that the women are being positioned as decorative features and added as something to make it more attractive rather than having the opportunity to enjoy the same level of funding and media exposure as men, some ask but wouldn't this be down to the sport and THESE particular women arent actually doing the driving or dart throwing?
The Women’s Sport Trust also claims that sporting viewers are expected to admire the successful, talented, strong men taking part in the competition, but others have said who gives The Women’s Sport Trust the right to tell viewer who or what they are expected to admire about the sport as people enjoy different aspects.

The Women’s Sport Trust says but women on the other hand are in this role by purely basing it on their physical appearance, others say but there are roles out there for all kinds of people so why not for women or men who are psychically attractive?
Apparently we all depict women in sports in a way that reinforces a narrow stereotype they also say it adds to the pressure of young girls to feel, look and act in a certain way but instead they claim if we depict women in a central powerful sporting role we create a positive modern and accurate image to inspire others.
Or you could also just watch the women's football or UFC and the many other sports women already participate in.
So the Women’s Sport Trust has called off for the end of female models across the whole world of sports starting with the decision to ban all walk-on girls in The Professional Darts Corporation.
The Professional Darts Corporation have already confirmed women will no longer escort players to the stage.

Not only that but just days after the end of the walk-on girls Formula 1 also ends its use of Grid Girls the F1 announcement has already also proven to be very or just as equally controversial to the first ban.
These changes are said and will commence from the start of the 2018 FIA Formula 1 World Championship season which is on the 25 of March.
So this will now also apply to all their other motorsports series's which take place during the Grand Prix weekends.
Many on Twitter have also called for a banning of all female models employed in this way across all sports.
Obviously the darts ban isn’t without its critics many have said the The Professional Darts Corporation is of political correctness gone completely mad and putting many many many women out of some very well paid well treated work.
The leading voice campaigning for gender equality in sport "The Women’s Sport Trust" has called now on all other sports to follow this action on banning any women wishing to became sports models.
Following the announcement more than 36,000 people have signed an online petition to keep the women modelling and in their well paid jobs.
Some of these women even describe the ban as being forced apart from a family they have known for years, check out their opinions below.

Thoughts, Ideas, Discussions
-This group are the sexists by suggesting modelling is objectifying women as if it wasn't their choice.
-The women here have just as much free will, choices as men, if they chose to be models that's THEIR choice!
-Their choice their body and they get paid, its simply a job, business so why not?
-In interview's these ladies ALL said it was a great job that they really enjoyed and they are always treated well.
-Has anyone actually asked the girls / ladies in question...?
-Well done to The Women’s Sport Trust more people out of work!
-So next a complete end to the modelling industry? Women and Men are "objectified" just as much there..
-An end to all fashion? No adverts where physically attractive people are used to sell products or services this is not equality!?
-Non artistic depressingly yet dull world these women are proposing here...
-We can clearly see that if these models INSIST on doing it then why argue with them and make them jobless??
-Is the Women's Sports trust going to compensate all those walk-on ladies for loss of earnings?
-Please ladies sue them for your job loses!
-Let the feminist women throw other women out of their jobs we can still watch sport thanks to "equality" the only people to blame these women for losing their jobs is women.
-A smart move as it keeps the focus on the sporting achievement of these men... real smart...
-Shall we ban all the good looking woman from all forms of advertising and jobs aswell how is this "equality"?
