"Girls playing sports is not about winning gold medals. It’s about self-esteem, learning to compete and learning how hard you have to work in order to achieve your goals."
— Jackie Joyner-Kersee 
  Track and Field Athlete

Today, the National Day of observance has evolved to recognize all girls and women athletes:

1. Sports Career – female athletes’ past and current sports achievements
2. Sports Inspiration and Influence – the positive influence of sports participation for women, girls, and society
3. Future of Sports – continuing to improve equality and access for women in sports

"Somewhere behind the athlete you’ve become and the hours of practice and the coaches who have pushed you is a little girl who fell in love with the game and never looked back… play for her"
— Mia Hamm 
  Soccer player
