It’s a pretty special day!
💜⚽🥎 National Women & Girls in Sports Day 🥎⚽💜
At National Recreation and Park Association, the message is simple and powerful: Get Her in the Game.
And here at MCRF, we’re proud to do our part every single day.
Girls who play sports build confidence, leadership skills, resilience, friendships, and lifelong healthy habits. But even today, girls still have fewer opportunities to participate than boys. That’s where all of us — parks, parents, coaches, and volunteers — step in.
✨ We’re doing our part to get her in the game. Parents, will you?
Park and recreation facilities, families, and coaches all play a role in helping getting more girls involved and setting them up for success later in life.

✨ Be the role model who breaks the barrier.
You can make a difference by coaching, mentoring, or volunteering with youth sports.
From softball and soccer to trail programs and multi-generational recreation, we’re committed to creating spaces where every girl feels welcome, supported, and strong. Let’s show our girls they belong on every field. 💪
