Through Girls in the Game programs, girls play sports, learn how to work together, and practice making healthy choices. Girls grow stronger and more confident as their involvement in the program grows. And that's not an accident. Girls in programs like ours are:

confident

more likely to graduate

less likely to drink, use drugs, and engage in other unhealthy behaviors

Research shows that girls who are physically active and involved in healthy-lifestyle programs have higher grades, are more likely to graduate, experience higher self-esteem, and are less likely to drink, use drugs, or engage in risky behaviors.

Girls in the Game wants all girls to have the opportunities they need to grow up healthy and confident. Girls can enroll in our programs at age 7 and stay involved through 18 and our programs are designed to keep girls involved, year-round, as they grow up.

Outside research confirms that girls involved in Girls in the Game programs exercise more, eat healthier and have a healthier body image than their peers.
