Scope and Contents

From DVD jacket: "Kick Like a Girl is the story of what happens when "The Mighty Cheetahs," an undefeated third grade girls soccer team competes in the boys division. With humor and candor this documentary reveals the reality of the boy-girl issues and what "kick like a girl" really means on and off the playing field. The film is narrated by 8-year-old Lizzie, a self described soccer girl, who doesn't let juvenile diabetes, elbow blocks ir grass stains interfere with her desire to compete."

The film was made in Salt Lake City by Jenny Mackenzie, the coach of the team and includes interviews with the girls on the team, their male opponents, parents, and experts on youth sports. It focuses on how the girls' teamwork and good sportsmanship led to their continued success.
