Our #factsoverfiction series continues with a focus on #HispanicHeritageMonth, as we team up with @wearedraftedco to shed light on the contributions of Latinas in sports.

Latina sports fans continue to show their ability to help grow teams fan bases and the larger sports economy with the passion they show through community activities, game day attendance and viewership. Now is the time for brands, leagues and teams to create effective sports marketing and engagement strategies to ensure they can develop the future of sports with this growing sports demographic as a key group.

Thank you, @alexmorgan13 - a legend on and off the pitch.

“I am so proud of my accomplishments on the pitch. My dream at a young age was to play professional soccer. I’ve achieved more than I could ever have imagined through the game, and as proud as I am of my soccer career, I’m equally proud of what I’ve fought for and helped build off the pitch. Pay equity. Player safety. Visibility and storytelling.

…When people talk about my legacy, I hope they remember that, too. And while this chapter may be ending, a new one is just beginning.” - Alex Morgan ❤️💙
