While the Little League® Girls with Game 50 (#GWG50) Year-Long Celebration has come to an end at the end of the 2024 season, the recognition and overall celebration of Girls with Game is only just beginning. This month, as the world joins to celebrate Women’s History Month, Little League is excited to once again shine the spotlight on its own amazing girls and women with its annual Girls with Game Month Celebration.
Throughout the course of March, Little League will be telling inspiring stories, celebrating incredible achievements, and bringing its Girls with Game Initiative to life in a variety of ways. The month-long celebration will feature everything from free local league digital toolkits and a variety of merchandise options available at ShopLittleLeague.org to allow every community to join in on the celebration while also showcasing unique stories, advice, and conversations from notable Girls with Game who continue to change the program for the better each day.

Additionally, Little League will be joining the Women’s History Month celebration theme of “Moving Forward Together! Women Educating and Inspiring Generations” throughout its own content messaging.
