    • Trivia
      During the Cathedral scene, when Kathy comes in late and passes the recruiting poster down the row, all the nuns passing the poster are members of the 1972 Immaculata Championship team.
    • Goofs
      The chapel seen in the movie is not the chapel of the real-life Villa Maria Hall. The one where the real-life girls had gone to mass was not suited for filming purposes, so a nearby Catholic church was used for the filming.

    Disney refused to produce it

    Because it did not have foul language

    I just discovered this movie on tubi. I liked it quite a bit. The young women in it could play ball, they were not just chosen on a lark.

    It had some drama but not over the top. The acting was good, the coaching was believable. I noticed some idiots put in their reviews that it is stereotypically predictable. Since this actually happened, there is nothing sterero about it, sheesh

    As soon as I saw the young nun pass the basketball I was all in, whoever directed this thing knew something about basketball

    This gem is slowly going to have a following as it gets exposure

    kudos to the creators for not caving into disney.
