Most of us can probably still remember the peaceful days when we just happy with our girlfriends and didn’t even care to think of boys (some maybe more hazy than others but still…) and when you think those days were short in your childhood – be glad as they’re even shorter today. And as a result, girls drop out of sports even quicker, which is something the Women’s Sports Foundation is desperate to stop .
In a society that teaches girls to judge their worth on looks rather than abilities, it’s no wonder that by age 14, girls are dropping out of sports at twice the rate of boys. When they walk away from sport, they walk away from their potential.
