On Sept 5, 2018, Surf Equity won the fight for inclusion, the fight for a multi-heat division and the fight for equal prize money across all World Surf League global events. In an email referring to Surf Equity’s advocacy work, Governor Newsom said: “I applaud the courage of the athletes and activist who fought for this victory, and I am hopeful that this will inspire the next generation — of daring athletes and activists with the audacity to challenge the status quo.” New York Times Magazine | Sunday, Feb 7, 2019

On Nov 16, 2020, Sabrina Brennan submitted a letter to the City and County of Honolulu Committee on Parks, Community Services & Intergovernmental Affairs regarding Bill 10 (2020). In her role as founder of Sport Equity she requested a minor amendment that she hopes will help strengthen the bill and make it leading edge legislation.

Brennan said, “I’m hopeful that the City and County of Honolulu will eventually require a permit condition that insures all professional sports competitions held solely on city/county land have gendered categories with identical playing time and prize compensation for each category at each participant level.”
