Philadelphia Eagles are helping keep girls involved in sport by investing in Flag Football and the support of over 30,000 sports bras.

The league the NFL team set-up in 2022 has now grown to 52 teams with the goal to make girls' flag football an officially sanctioned sport in the state of Pennsylvania.

Key to their strategy is making sure girls have the right equipment - including sports bras. They have launched Operation Warm to give out over 30,000 sports bras to athletes in need this year.

Palumbo Lady Griffins player Ruth Duink and her coach Chris Donnelly speak to Sportshour about the impact this has had.
