WNBA All-Star charity initiative supports sports group that says it is ‘moving beyond the binary of girl’

The WNBA is celebrating its milestone 30th season with a new All-Star initiative that the league says is designed to help keep girls involved in sports.

But one of the Chicago-area organisations selected to benefit from the league’s $100,000 All-Star prize pool says on its own website that it is "moving beyond the binary of ‘girl’" and welcomes "gender-expansive participants regardless of gender identity or expression."

The organisation is Girls in the Game, the charity affiliated with "Team (Teresa) Weatherspoon" in the 2026 WNBA All-Star Game.

According to the league’s July 15 release, the WNBA All-Star teams will compete for a $100,000 prize pool benefiting two Chicago-area organisations "dedicated to keeping girls involved in sports." The winning team’s organisation receives $70,000, while the runner-up’s organisation gets $30,000. Team (Cynthia) Cooper is playing for Angels Athletics, while Team Spoon is supporting Girls in the Game.

The WNBA described Girls in the Game as an organisation that "partners with schools, parks, and community centers in Chicago to offer sports, health, and leadership programs."

That sounds straightforward enough until you dig deeper into the Girls in the Game website.

OutKick/Fox News Digital reviewed the organisation’s website and found language that raises obvious questions about how Girls in the Game defines "girl."

The WNBA All-Star Game is set for July 25 on the ESPN Broadcast Network at 20.30 EDT at the United Center. Should Ray Clay be the PA announcer? And should the National Anthem be Jim Corneilson? (Danny Wirtz owns the United Center -- will he bring his daughters?)

Girls will never be men until they knock off the Barbie and My Little Pony BS. No more daddy’s little princess in a baseball hat and catcher’s mask.

As we're using Ollier v. Sweetwater Union High School District (2014) now to cut boys' sport in high schools, the mission is set. Boys will have to claim to be girls just to play sports or be in academic programs because of bean counters.

The WNBA promoting these gimmicks as boys are being told "there's no room for you because of federal mandates" is relegating boys, and that's the only way boys can play under their pipe dream.

The WNBA is a leftist organization subsidized by the NBA. Their ideology is more important than female empowerment.

Larry Johnson (UNLV star, NBA with the Pelicans — ignore the revisionism done in 2014 — and Knicks), who later converted to Islam and all of that looniness. It was a Converse promotion in the shoe wars.

Agreed.

moving beyond the binary

There are 11 types of people:

Those who understand binary.
Those who don't.
And those dumb enough to think "nonbinary" is some sort of thing.
