Who’s Got Game? TeamSnap Impact Joins Philadelphia Youth Sports Collaborative
Posted in:
On Saturday, September 28, 2024, TeamSnap Impact joined Philadelphia Youth Sports Collaborative (PYSC) at South Philly High School for the second annual Philly Girls Got Game (PG3) basketball clinic.
The PG3 clinic serves girl, non-binary or female identifying children in grades 2-8 and, this year, brought together more than 100 young athletes and players and coaches from Big 5 women’s basketball teams, including University of Pennsylvania, Villanova University, Drexel University, LaSalle University and Temple University.
The event has benefits on all sides.
As Drexel player Chloe Hodges told ABC News, “I feel like it’s important to give back to our community and show our girls something to aspire to.”
PYSC is one of TeamSnap Impact’s long-time partners. The organization serves as a central hub, where diverse stakeholders and partners come together to bring sports to every young resident in Philadelphia. And the PG3 clinic, in particular, highlights TeamSnap Impact’s focus on gender equity in youth sports – and providing opportunities for girls. “This event is a great example of empowering girls and the importance of female role models,” says TeamSnap Impact director Lance Lee.
