Recognizing the pivotal role sports can play in future success, the Orlando Magic recently announced a partnership with Orange County Public Schools’ (OCPS) middle school basketball program with the featured tagline – The 2022 OCPS Middle School Basketball Season powered by the Orlando Magic. The season tipped off in January and will culminate with a championship game for both the girls’ and boys’ teams played in March. As part of that initiative and in celebration of National Girls and Women in Sports Day, leaders from the Magic and AdventHealth visited Maitland Middle School on Wednesday prior to their girls’ home basketball game and spoke with both teams – Maitland Middle and Howard Middle – about leadership and highlighting the value and importance of women in sports.
