The non-profit All Girls Ball offers a free basketball league to families who are making the tough choice of cutting out sports in their family budget and helping to fill a huge gap in the Houston girls' basketball circuit.

KPRC 2 News Anchor Sofia Ojeda met with the founder to learn the motivation behind it.

"We found out that finding an all girls' team can be a little tricky to find. Then we thought there's a lot of co-ed recreational opportunities, lots of competitive A.A.U. opportunities, in the middle there's a big gap so we wanted to fill it," founder Cora Lindsay said.
