Sports are crucial for young girls in building successful habits, strong character, and learning how to work towards achieving a goal. I grew up playing football, soccer, basketball, volleyball, softball, and practicing martial arts. Sports helped grow my discipline, self-control, and leadership abilities leading me to pursue a career in coaching football. I hope to see continued growth in support, viewership, and opportunities for women of all ages to compete, play, and grow together on the field.
Equality in access, support, and opportunities for women who play or work in sports is paramount for the next generation. The growth of women’s sports and their contributions to the sports world on and off the field keeps growing. I am excited to watch as we keep creating space and opportunities for everyone to play.
