quote:
Last year, Ashlynn, a 7-year old from Toronto, was awarded the MVP award from the opposing team during Regional Finals. “After the game,” said her dad, Dan, “[a parent on our team] told me that girls shouldn’t be playing baseball and that they should stick to softball. Then, at tryouts, the coach cut her from the team.”

Our response? Their loss. •
In just 10 days, this 8-year old is headed to #BFANationals to join hundreds of girls from North America and abroad to do what they do best: play baseball. •
“I don’t think it has ever occurred to Ashlynn that some people think that girls can’t do things that boys can do,” says Dan. •
We’re right there with you, Ashlynn—and we’ve got your back
