Gal Pals
We started this adventure the summer of 2019. Worn out by the existing narratives around women’s sports, we were ready to enjoy our leagues the same way we enjoy men’s sports - with a couple of beers and a lot of laughs. We started creating videos en route to France for the World Cup and over a year later we’re still going. We aim to make sports fun, make fun of sports, and do some good along the way.
Emily Anderson
Emily Anderson, originally from Columbus, IN, is a product manager by day and director and photographer by night. As a kid she was incentivized to overcome her fear of the baseball with Mint Milano cookies. It did not work, and she soon moved on to soccer. On Chicago Red Stars game days, you can find her on the sideline taking photos.
