Girls Can Play Ball

Almost 50 years ago a local, 12 year old girl named Carolyn King wanted to join the Ypsilanti American Little League team and this simple desire to PLAY BALL set off a national firestorm. Back in 1973 only boys were allowed to be on Little League teams. You can stream the documentary about this crazy controversy to learn more about how a young girl from Ypsilanti helped change the silly ‘no girls allowed’ policy of the Little League.
