Female Athletes Have Many Concerns Upon Becoming Pregnant
Many female athletes have to face their fear of telling their coaches or their sponsors about their pregnancy. Fasani, who is sponsored by Burton Snowboards, might have feared losing her sponsorship if she couldn’t ride for her brand.
Luckily that wasn’t the case. “Initially I was really nervous but as soon as the words came out of my mouth that I was pregnant, [they were] so excited and happy for us! [They] made it clear that she would support me through my pregnancy and that [they] would continue to work closely with me through this,” Fasani said.
