Girls in Sports


We always hear how girls "can't" play sports and all these judgement that parents and children make on each other but if they want to are you going to be the one to tell them no? While every girl is growing up their father are sitting right there beside them wishes and praying that they like sports don't get to involved with "girly" things are boys. For some this comes true for others, nice try!

Females are excelling in sports due to their hardheaded minds and their determination. It's not always a competition with women, it can be mere fun and games. While men and boys are more competitive this doesn't mean that women don't fight for what they earn.


While women might not have be included in games with the males, women have been participating in sports since 776 B.C. This was the time that the males were having the first Olympics excluding the females from the games. So they planned on making their own games of Hera, this was to honor the Greek goddess who ruled over the women and the earth. Since then women have come along way in sports and many are at the point where they can compete with men.


In today's world there are thousands of women involved in sports and many sports that are not just easy. There are women involved in full contact, fighting sports. Not afraid of the contact their are many who rule over these positions and come of the top to become ledges in our world today. So next time you hear someone making a comment about how it's a "guy sport" let them know that there are many females that could crush them in this sport and it's not a "guy sport".


This is a link to one of the toughest sports around and seeing what happens in this video you can tell that there is no difference in sports. Women can do just as well and males. The sex of somebody doesn't limit their skills in sports or anything else for that matter. Never underestimate a female and never discriminate because of someones sex.

This is true; you should never underestimate a female. I remember when I was growing up and even now, I love football! I could throw hard and faster than most of the boys at school and I probable still can. I wasn't alone either I knew plenty of girls who liked football and was good at it. When it came to the football team it was usually "a boy sport" but some girls’ question why they couldn't join. I was a friend of the football coach and I asked him why girls couldn't get involved or have their own team. He told me a story how there was a girl sometime ago who did joined and was really good. He said girls could try but it’s a risk they could get hurt. I never knew a girl personally who actually took action and join. However I’m sure there many girls who could make it, in a sport like football.
