    Girls Play LL, travel and other baseball forms. I think that HS is the undefined barrier. College. It is seperated as Men Sports, Female sports. Football is another that does not hav3e a barrier. I think that suits have been presented in ever sports at about every level.

    Not baseball, but football!

    Check out Ryann Kostandin, playing 8th grade football with plans to try out for the high school team next year.

    girls in guys sports

    girls at my kids school rocked baseball until she entered the ninth grade. Switched to SB at that time, couldn't make the changes needed. No longer plays at all and she was awesome at the plate and 3rd, really sad.

    However we did have a female kicker on our football team and the girls hit harder during their powderpuff game than most of our linemen. And that is a direct quote from a FB dad, lol.

    Wadell High School in Charlotte had two girls on their baseball team last year because there weren't enough girls to form a softball team, and the baseball team was short-handed. There was an article in the Observer about the team.
