Elizabeth Lindsey grew up playing soccer, but when her family moved to a new town, there was no girls’ soccer team. The boys were “horrible to her,” said Lindsey, and refused to let her play on their team. So at the age of nine, Lindsey made a presentation to the city council to explain why she should be allowed to play on the boys’ team.
“And I won,” said Lindsey. “They let me play.”
