Indianapolis WNBA All-Star Game Inspires Girls to Play Basketball

share on:

The WNBA All-Star 2025 Host Committee has released a new public service announcement titled “Girls Get in the Game”, a powerful message aimed at inspiring girls across Indiana, and beyond, to see themselves in sports and seize the opportunities it creates.

Front and center in the PSA is Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever’s electrifying guard and one of the most popular athletes in women’s sports. Clark’s meteoric rise has captivated fans nationwide, but her greatest impact may be how she’s motivating a new generation of girls to dream big on the basketball court. Her presence in the campaign serves as a living example of confidence, passion, and leadership in action.

“She’s not just changing the game—she’s changing minds,” said Holli Harrington, Chair of the Women and Girls Empowerment Committee. “When girls see someone like Caitlin Clark thriving at the highest level, they believe they can do it too.”

Alongside Clark, the PSA features WNBA legend Tamika Catchings, Fever star Aliyah Boston, and Indy Ignite volleyball standout Leketor Member-Meneh, as well as a lineup of prominent Indiana executives. Their message: sports teach skills that translate into lifelong success.

An EY and espnW study underscores the point—94% of women in executive roles played sports growing up.

“Sports taught me resilience, discipline and joy,” said Catchings. “That foundation carries you well beyond the court.”

The initiative offers instructional guides, workout videos, and downloadable resources at fever.wnba.com/girlsgetinthegame to help educators, mentors, and organizations bring the message to life.

Supporters are encouraged to share stories and photos using #GirlsGetintheGame and #WNBAAllStar2025—helping to fuel the movement Caitlin Clark is already leading with every game she plays.
