That was Maria Pepe who had joined a team in Hoboken, New Jersey in 1972 and then was dismissed by the coach after parents complained. Little League then threatened to revoke the charter of the league if they continued to allow her to play. The National Organization for Women filed a civil rights complaint in New Jersey, claiming sexual discrimination. In 1974, the Court ruled that Little League must allow both boys and girls the opportunity to participate. Click on the 'Maria Pepe' link below to read about the event.
