Custom Team Uniforms Provider, Uniforms Express, Donates Jersey to Female Football Player While Supporting Equality for Female Athletics

Female Football Player, Maddy, Gains Support to Play High School Football

Chula Vista, California (July 9, 2013) – Uniforms Express, a premier manufacturer and retailer of custom team sports uniforms, supports female athletes and their fight for equality to play tackle football and other sports amongst men in their peer group.

Uniforms Express known as one of the top producers of high quality custom sports uniforms for youth programs, high school teams, and universities across the country. They supply custom baseball uniforms to the likes of Stanford University, Kansas, and Wisconsin.

Earlier this month, Uniforms Express alongside Maxim Athletic, came together to support, Let Her Play, a newly formed online activist group that is voicing the right for female athletes to play competitive sports alongside men.

Let Her Play began when a female middle school football player, Maddy, was denied the right to play for her Christian school’s football program on the grounds that she was female. This decision came after Maddy had not only played, but played well and represented the school’s football team since her first tackle in 5th grade.

Uniforms Express and Maxim Athletic have made it very clear that they support equality amongst all athletes, regardless of age, race, or gender. To show their joint support they have donated a custom football jerseys with “Let Her Play” on them to Maddy and her family to help raise awareness.

Since Let Her Play began as a Facebook fan page in mid June, Maddy has been interviewed and or featured on The Bert Show, CBS News, and Fox 5 Atlanta amongst many other local and national news stations. In addition, Let Her Play has gained the support and recognition of USA’s National Women’s tackle football team whom recently posted a team photo online huddling around a sign that reads, “#LetHerPlay.”
