True or False… Girls can’t play sports as well as guys?

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UIC chapter.

True or False. Girls can’t play sports as well as guys. (Yes, cheerleading counts as a sport!)
 
Duh, False! And I’m willing to bet that you didn’t even have to think twice about that one. Not because we want to prove ourselves, either. It’s because girls do like to play sports. Let’s face it, when it comes to de-stressing, getting in shape, and whooping guys butts, us girls can get pretty darn aggressive.
 
Finals week’s arrival isn’t going to slow down just because of the mounds of work needed to be done. So why not kick around a ball, and remind yourself how strong you are, both mentally and physically?
 
Stop by the Student Recreation Facility (MAC court) by 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 30th to get a chance to play in a competitive, coed, scrimmage. The International Football Club (IFC) hosts this recreational activity every Saturday morning to get students on campus more active and involved.
 
So get up off of your couch, throw away your textbooks (yes, we are actually encouraging you to forget about tests… at least for a few hours), and kick some soccer butt!
