I would play sports with my brothers and that was the only thing we had to bond over. Growing up I was made fun of for being a girl in sports but I didn’t quit. I am glad I didn’t quit because now I have a strong relationship with my siblings, and I made a lot of friends while playing sports. I think it is important to show how women can do the same things men can. Sports have allowed me to play with my family and friends. Having the same opportunities as men means having the same respect as male athletes. It means a lot to women because some women around the world do not have the choice to play. We will always be strong enough to play sports.
