Up2Us Sports' Young Voices Series is a series of one-hour virtual events in collaboration with their partner organizations, that give youth an opportunity to speak about the issues that affect them and their communities most.
On October 29, 2020, in partnership with member program Oakland Lacrosse Club, we hosted Episode 2: She Changes The Game. This was a conversation led by some amazing young women lacrosse athletes on the steps we need to take to equal the playing field for girls, their experiences of being a young female athlete, and the important role the sport of lacrosse plays in their lives.

Guests included Oakland Lacrosse Club athletes Angelina, Brisa, Jasmine Kayahnna and Molly. Special assistance was provided by Oakland Lacrosse Club Program Director Allison Ambrozy Allouche and Girls Coordinator Monica Branch.
The panel was hosted by Up2Us Sports National Director of Strategic Partnerships, Dr. Ahada McCummings.
