Equal Play gives girls the opportunity to play with their female peers in a positive and encouraging environment. The program is designed to:

provide girls with an opportunity to be part of a sports league — particularly girls who otherwise would be unable to play a sport outside of school, due to financial, cultural or other constraints;
