About Sporty Girls: In 2006, local radio personality Rashan Ali founded Sporty Girls Inc. in Atlanta, Georgia to provide young minority girls the opportunity to participate in non-traditional sports – those not traditionally offered in metro Atlanta public schools. A lifelong competitive swimmer and recipient of a four-year swimming scholarship at Florida A & M University, Rashan knew that one day she would want that same opportunity for other girls like her. Not only did she want young girls to swim, but also learn to play, soccer, golf, lacrosse and tennis. Through Sporty Girls, she has been afforded the opportunity to introduce young minority girls to an unconventional way to participate in non-traditional sports.
