Basketball

This year, the season for girls ILH basketball was changed from spring to winter season. It was changed to the same season as guys basketball. I think this is really stupid because now we have to share the 2 courts in the gym and the 3 courts outside between 12 teams. There are 2 teams for girls and boys of each level, Varsity, JV, and Intermediate. Everything is so much harder for the girls now, because of course the guys sports are more important. We have a much shorter season, and we dont get to have preseason tournaments anymore. Our practices (and court time) are going to be shortened and altered. We may even have late or really early (5:30-7:00 AM) practices. It is really unfair that the guys are favored over the girls. I am really angry about this, because things are supposed to be equal. It just shows that people are still prejudiced.
