Although the concept of sports have been around quite some time, it wasn't until the late 19th century that high schools and colleges began forming teams for girls and women. Female educators saw the need for teams that girls and women could play on and set off to work on building programs everywhere. Now, some of the most decorated athletes of all time are women who have paved their way, broken glass ceilings, and made names for themselves in their respective sports including USA track star Allyson Felix, USA tennis star Serena Williams, USA soccer stars Mia Hamm and Abby Wambach, USA swim star Katie Ledecky, USA gymnast Simone Biles, and many, many more. While the list of strong female athletes could go on forever, VYPE DFW is honored to celebrate some of the Dallas-Fort Worth area's athletes!
With hundreds of high schools across the Dallas-Fort Worth area and plenty of girls athletic programs, some of the top athletes in the area include strong women who are making names for themselves while putting their school, team, and community on the map. Continuing to strive for greatness on the court, on the field, on the trail, on the track, and in the pool, the athletes VYPE has had the pleasure of covering have all proven to be excellently skilled and truly great human beings. VYPE is honored to work with and celebrate so many strong women athletes. I look forward to continuing to cover DFW-area women's sports.
