why cant.......

I have mixed feelings about this. We had girls soccer when I played ball in HS, so there was a comperable sport and this was never an issue.

What I will say is that if you join, just try to blend in. The worse thing you can do is make a spectal of yourself. No one likes the girl that wants to be one of the guys one minute but then also wants to be recognized as a girl. I think you will be okay if you go out and make it clear you want no special treatment and not to be treated any different. Expect to get pounded and hurt...thats the nature of this sport. Unfortunately from what I saw in HS, the slower and smaller players are usually beat around a bit harder (Darwinism of sorts).

I might be the first one to suggest this, but have you ever thought about becoming an offical? I really missed ball after graduating and found that becoming an offical allowed me to get back in withthe game that I love so much. Something to consider...
