Mission

To educate women in an athletic endeavor

What it reported doing in 2024

Team of 6 age groups allocated to 17 teams (approximately 400 girls) compete in approximately 13 competitive fast -pitch softball trounaments including the national tournament

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 99% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
