Welcome to Teen Voices Online!
We’ll be glued to our televisions in August, watching the stars of swimming, gymnastics, track, basketball, and all the other events battle it out in Beijing. In honor of the 2008 Summer Olympics, this month’s Teen Voices features women’s athletics. We’ve got an interview with Lesley Visser, the first woman sportscaster, and a Girl Talk on Olympic teens, along with the Top 10 Moments in Women’s Sports, and poetry and fiction that takes you right onto the field. Activist-of-the-Month Sejal Hathi connects girls all over the world—just like the Olympics do. Read along—and then head outside and get some athletic action going for yourself!
