Shelbie Plays on an Undefeated “Boys” Team
Submitted By: Shelbie | Age: 15
I’m Shelbie #72, 15 years of age. Growing up I was always interested in sports. I was often doubted because of my size and the fact that I was a girl. I often played “street football” with toy guys.
Now I am in my 8th grade year, and I play on my school’s Boys football team. We went undefeated this season. I played Tight End as a starter, also kickoff.
I also play Tuba in my schools marching band. This shows girls can!

Shelbie – that’s really cool! I think I had a request for a tuba design a while back. I’ll have to make sure that’s on my list.
