You’re a youth soccer director in somewhere, America, just trying to coordinate hundreds of kids and their probably overly-involved parents. You make a bad decision (a REALLY bad decision) about a player - and suddenly you have Abby Wambach, Mia Hamm, and Julie Foudy mad at you.
That’s what it’s been like for the organizers of the Springfield Girls Soccer Invitational in Nebraska, who disqualified eight-year-old Mili Hernandez from playing and kicked her team out of a tournament because she “looks like a boy.” Hernandez has short hair and plays up an age group with a team of 11-year-olds.
