Great Big Story | Women are changing the face of basketball one hoop at a time 🏀 #shorts #basketball @GreatBigStory | Uploaded 4 months ago | Updated 3 hours ago
Hear that swish? That’s the Salam Stars crushing it on the court. The all-female varsity basketball team is made up of Muslim students from the Salam School, an Islamic school in Milwaukee. All the players wear hijabs and modest athletic wear. In an ideal world, that wouldn’t be a big deal, but they often face judgment based on their outfits and their religion. But these athletes ignore the haters. The Salam Stars are focused on the game. They play to win while making space for other girls to do the same.
