It's educational for young viewers, especially girls, to realize that it wasn't always a priority for girls' athletic teams to exist, much less compete nationally.

Several positive messages, particularly for girls. The fact that Cathy, despite being married, chooses to take a coaching job to pursue her passion for basketball shows that women don't need to rely on a husband to fulfill all their dreams. Cathy's perseverance in the face of difficulty is also an example that you should never give up, even when things aren't going your way. The girls' commitment to the Macs is an important lesson in teamwork and collaboration. The fact they're willing to wake up early, sweat, and give it their all is what sports -- and discipline -- should be about for kids.

Coach Rush is an amazing example of an educator who inspires and makes a huge difference in her team's lives. Without Coach Rush and Sister Sunday's dedication to the Macs, those girls never would have won a national championship or gone on to become famous college and WNBA and high school coaches themselves. The girls each learn the value of belonging to a team, even an underdog team.

A few hugs and one quick kiss between a married couple, and a tame discussion about marriage and weddings. One character has her heart broken, but her boyfriend is never seen in the film. A nun out of her habit accepts a beer from an interested pub patron.

Cathy and Sister Sunday each have a pint at a pub.
