Vermont Schools Swap White Shorts for Comfort | Burlington News
Description
Vermont’s school sports leaders are tackling a hidden hurdle for girls: period leaks in white shorts. To help, they’re pushing to switch to darker uniforms, offering grants and vendor discounts to make the change easy — because one in three girls quit sports by age 14, often due to discomfort and anxiety. Schools like Lamoille Union and Stowe High are already rolling out black shorts, empowering athletes to feel confident and focused on playing, not worrying about their bodies. This isn’t just about fabric — it’s about building a more supportive, inclusive environment where every girl can thrive on the field.
