Girls Of Sunday Sports
By sports.mysportsbookonline.info

Women play a really big role in sports. When the women's rights movement came into effect, that's when women were allowed to participate in sports. In 1840-1901 was the beginning of women in sports, and then it was only in very few events they participated in. Tennis was played by women in the 1880's which was more like batminton now. Even though tennis has been popular with the women for so long it still did little to help the future of women's team sports.

It wasn't until 1972 when Title lX, The Educational Amendment Act, was passed that said: Federal money could not be given to public school programs that discriminated against gender. Schools then had to have equal teams for girls and boys. They had to have equal equipment, scholarship funds, and teams to get government funding. That's what has helped womens sports grow tremendously. Girls of Sunday Sports could include every woman these days, from church teams to professional sports. Women are very successful and talented in sports, Women are given drive, by the disbelief that we can not achieve the same goals that men do.

Women in sports has had to overcome a lot of different things. Of course, we first had to prove that just because we give birth to children doesn't make us weak. Then men had this idea that if women played sports they couldn't get married and have children like normal Americans. When women started bicycling there was proper clothing they had to wear such as lose unrestrictive clothing. Overcoming

all of those issues we have proceeded to move forward.

Contact sports like football, wrestling and boxing are still not as popular as the rest. Golf was considered a good sport for women and back in the 1900's was only played in the front yards of the rich or at country clubs. Women who was the daughter or wife of a member could play at almost every country club there were still a few that just had women's day. Archery was one of the first organized sports for women that they could play competitive and could also have tournaments. Today the only major issues we have is which sport to play. Now colleges are giving scholarships for just about every women sport.

Girls of Sunday sports have a lot of confidence and a lot of sense of achievement. Just like everything else that we have to prove we can do, it empowers women to work harder. The future of women athletics are getting brighter each day! Women have earned a lot of respect due to the fact of motivation and the desire to succeed in every part of our daily lives, and to strive for bigger challenges. Girls of Sunday sports are legend and heroes to many.
