Who We Are

Girls in the Game provides sports, health and leadership programs in partnership with schools, parks and community centers in Chicago. Participants can try a variety of sports like soccer, lacrosse, yoga or volleyball in a friendly, non-competitive environment while also learning about important health and leadership topics like self-advocacy and positive body image. Our programs include after school programs, a summer camp, clinics, one-time programs and teen programs!

We support girls across Chicago.
