“Girls playing sports is not about winning gold medals. It’s about self-esteem, learning to compete and learning how hard you have to work in order to achieve your goals.”
- Jackie Joyner-Kersee
And hey, speaking of girls and gold medals how about those U.S. female Olympians this year? Already Hannah Kearney (pictured above) became the first person on the U.S. team to get a gold medal, in women's moguls freestyle skiing, and we've been tipped that the U.S. women's snowboarding and hockey teams are heavily favored as well. Hurrah for growing equity in sports!
