One year ago today, we lost our founder, Sue Parsons Zipay, but her legacy continues to inspire every player, coach, volunteer, and supporter of American Girls Baseball.
Sue believed every girl who wanted to play baseball deserved the opportunity to do so. She turned that belief into action by founding American Girls Baseball and dedicating her life to creating opportunities for female athletes to learn, compete, and thrive in the game she loved.
As a former Rockford Peach in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, Sue helped make history. As the founder of American Girls Baseball, she helped shape the future.
Today, we remember her passion, determination, and unwavering commitment to expanding opportunities for girls and women in baseball. The work continues because of the foundation she built and the countless lives she touched along the way.
Thank you, Sue, for believing in what was possible and for reminding us that the future of women's baseball is worth fighting for.
Your legacy lives on in every girl who steps onto the field.
❤️ In memory of Sue Parsons Zipay
Founder, American Girls Baseball
1934–2025
