Have you ever been told you can't
because you're a girl?
When I was a kid I wanted to play soccer…but in my town girls didn’t play soccer…that didn’t stop me…turns out when the games started there was 1 other girl who insisted on playing too…of course they put us on different teams because they assumed we would be the weakest players…well by the next season…we were on different teams because we were in the top of the draft!! Me and her quickly became best friends and we still are…more then 20 years later!!
Now I celebrate all girls who play soccer, football and and any other sport they want to play with my online store just for girls who love to play sports! If your a sporty girl check it out! http://www.cafepress.com/sportygirls

Great story! Athletics for girls were not even part of the equation when I went to school. So every female out there today…. you go girls!
