Girls Incorporated® of Oak Ridge Sports Program

Girls Incorporated® of Oak Ridge began its team sports program in 1976 because girls wanted the opportunity to play organized sports.  But who knew then, that women’s team sports would become a major career field for women of the 21st century.

Times have changed!  Girls play organized sports at middle school, high school, college and professional levels, and Girls Inc. has been fortunate to be a part of this process.

Girls Inc. encourages girls to participate in activities that develops leadership ability, teamwork, and self-confidence.  Team sports certainly provide career opportunities for players, but athletic competition has also spawned careers in the fields of coaching, broadcasting, and team management, to list a few.

Girls Inc. teaches girls to become Strong, Smart and Bold SM

The Sports Program provides girls the opportunity to participate in a recreational team sports program for all levels of ability. Either on or off the playing field or court, it’s okay to break a sweat, have a ball doing it, and be a Girls Inc. girl!

Below we have listed the seasonal programs we are offering at this time. As our sports budget and our facilities increase, so will the sports program.
