Plot

An unlikely basketball team of unappreciated middle-aged Texas women, all former high school champs, challenge the current high school girls’ state champs to raise money for breast cancer prevention.

Sinekatalog’s take

Middle-aged women challenge the state's best teenage team to a charity basketball match. The humor is mild and the story predictable, but the spirit is upbeat. A harmless crowd-pleaser for lovers of underdog comedies.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
