DescriptionIts 1977, and 10-year-old Tina couldnt be happier about her life. Not because she just moved to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, but because shes finally old enough to make her dream come true: she can play on a real hockey team. But when she tries to join the league, she learns that girls arent allowed to play on the boys team--and theres no team for girls. Despite jeers from classmates and cruelty from some of the towns adults, Tina is determined to play. She wants it more than anything. With the help of her family, Tina takes her fight to the Human Rights Commission. Shes allowed to play on a team while her case goes through court, but though shes the best skater on the ice, even some of her teammates think she shouldnt be there. From facing down angry coaches to testifying on the stand, Tina does everything for one big goal: to play real hockey. Based on an inspiring true story, No Girls Allowed is a journey of passion, determination, and sheer love of the game.
