The Founder of this ‘League’ is Anne Barr. March 2007 was the year she would pull it together. As a member of the Church Christ Covenant, Anne became truly dedicated to giving back to the community where she grew up.

With the wheels in motion, well over 200 women signed up, warmed up & batted up, for the first softball pitch to be thrown. Friday nights now, are like no other for jock minded women. Ages range from 21 to at least 58. We hear tell the average age is 30 something. “YOU GO GIRLS”!

What’s new with this league, you ask? Plenty! Softball for sure, however, bowling, basketball and tennis are all in play as well.

Anne Barr, better known as “Sarge” is on her way to developing one of the largest women’s sports league in the country. Year 2007 yielded over 600 players.

The chosen charity of this league is ‘The Atlanta Lesbian Initiative’. This non-profit organization provides outreach, education and advocacy for lesbians who are committed to living healthier lives.

Although this sports league is for the most part, gay women, from Fulton, DeKalb, Cobb & Gwinnett County, there are many diverse teams too. After all, it is really just about the game...isn’t it?
