12-Year-Old Girl Writes A Passionate Letter To Dick's Sporting Goods For Not Including Women In Its Catalog
Sports1 min read

Chris Peterson, a reporter for AZCentral Sports and NBC12, tweeted a picture of a letter his daughter wrote to Dick's Sporting Goods. McKenna was upset that Dick's didn't include any pictures of women in its "Basketball 2014 catalog."

The young girl calls herself a fan of WNBA team the Phoenix Mercury, as well as WNBA MVP Lindsay Whalen of the Minnesota Lynx.

McKenna goes on to chastise the catalog for only showing women sitting in the stands or in the shoes section. She hammers home the point in the letter, claiming, "It's hard enough for girls to break through in this sport as it is, without you guys excluding us from your catalog."

Read the letter below and give a round of applause for McKenna:
