*Storytime*
My daughter (20) has been playing football for 15 years. She joined a team of good friends - 6 v 6 - for the indoor season.
Her entire team is Black and Brown Muslim women. All of them played competitive soccer. Some wear hijab some don't. They are a VERY good team.

I just have to say, after growing up in the US, spending 5 years in Canada, and 2 in Ireland, my American/British English spelling is a complete mess.
