I think girls should be able to play on boys sports teams because boys and girls have the same rights. My sister Liz played on the boys golf team at her highschool. She was the number one player on the boys team. By playing on the boys team and by beating the boys it not only made her a better player but she got a scholarship to Georgetown. If she wasn't allowed to play on the boys team that might not have happened.

Girls should be able to play boy sports because if they couldn't it would be unfair. A reason this should be so is because the U.S.A is a free country. I feel that girls and boys should have the same selection of sport activities. If girls couldn't play boy sports some girls might not get enough exercise

Yes, I do think girls should be allowed to play boys sports. One argument is if they weren't allowed, they won't have as many chances to play. That would be unfair. Girl athletes are sometimes better than boys. They can actually help a boys team!

I think girls should be able to play on boy's sports teams. I think so because girls are just as strong as boys. Also because girls can be just as fast as boys too. A lot of boys think that girls aren't stronger,faster or better at sports than boys. And that's why I think that girls should be able to play on boy's sports teams.

I think girls should be able to play on boys' teams if they qualify. Everybody should have an equal chance to be on a team if they meet the coach's requirements. It would make sense because in gym, there are boy teams and some girls go on the boy teams. Therefore, girls can play on boys' teams. So, girls should have just as much opportunity to be on any team they want.

I think girls should play boys sports because it is unfair for guys to only play those sports when girls want to. One reason is girls will get less exercise and they will get fat. Another reason is girls can be better athletes than boys. Another reason is U.S.A. is a free country. One last reason is girls can prove to boys that they are as good as they are.

Although girls are just as capable as boys, I think girls should play on their own sports teams. One reason for this is that girls should learn how to develop friendships with eachother. These friendships can last a lifetime. Next, they can embrace their own unique qualities. Finally, by uniting as a group they can influence other girls around the world.

Yes, I do think that girls be able to play boy sports because boys and girls should be treated equally. One example is if a girl wanted to join a football team, she can still play, get the ball, and dress up in the puffy uniforms. Another example is rowing, boys might have big mussels to row, but that dosn't mean girls don't have the strength to do it. Another example is ice hockey, most of the time boys are usually skating and hitting the puck, but girls can do that too and might even be the same speed with just a first try. Those are some examples of why I think that girls should play boy sports.

I think girls should be able to play boy sports. Just because girls aren't strong, together we are stronger in more ways than one. We also could have good strategies to win. Some girls are bad at sports and some are good that doesn't mean we are all horrible at sports.I hope you see my reason why girls can play boy sports.

I do think girls should be allowed to be on boy's team because girls are equally as athletic as boys. I think they would make the team better because they can do all the things boys can. What they can do is run fast if they're in a soccer game, hit the ball really fast for baseball, and they can join the wrestling team to show how strong they can be. Girls should also be on a team with boys because it's a good way for boys and girls to interact with each other and be able to meet new people if they already didn't know each other. Amazingly, nine out of ten people agreed that girls should be on boys team because it's a good way to have girls know how tough they can be to show boys they can be just as good as them. Those are just a few reasons to show why I think girls should be on a boys team.

I think girls should be able to play on boys sports teams. One reason is that boys are not necessarily better than girls at sports. Plus, if the girl is good at the sport, she may even make a great addition to the team and help them win. Also, in the United States, girls have equal rights with boys, so they have every right to play on the boys team if they want to. My last reason is it is totally unfair to girls that they are seen as not as athletic as boys, so they deserve a opportunity to prove that they are just as good, if not better then the boys. This is why I believe that girls should be able to play on the boys sports teams.

I think girls should be able to play boys sports. I think this because girls should learn new skills and how to become better players. Another reason is girls can meet their goals to be a good athlete because the boys may be better players and if the girls win playing against the boys, it will make them feel good about themselves. Also, the girls could teach the boys new ways to play too. I think this would be good because it will be easier for both boys and girls to become better and learn the game together.

I think girls should be able to play on boy's sports teams. One reason is girls can be just as good as boys in sports. My next argument is that girls can be really good at sports, so they could make the boys team even better. Another reason is the USA is a free country, so girls should have every right to play on the boys team if they want to. My last argument is it is offensive to girls that they would not be allowed to play on the boy's team because people think they are not as good at sports as boys. This is why I think girls should be able to play on boy's sports teams.

I think girls should not be able to play guys sports because guys playing with guys makes them better . Another reason I think girls should not play guys sports is if they were to play baseball what kind of ball would we use . One of the other reasons of why girls should play guys sports is some of the guys would over dominate some of the girls and some of the girls will over dominate the boys
