After two undefeated seasons against girls' soccer teams their age and older, Utah's Mighty Cheetahs are about to take on a new challenge: boys. Cheetahs coach Jenny Mackenzie chronicles the adventures of these third-grade underdogs as they set out to prove their game skills and overcome the skepticism of opponents and parents in the inspiring family documentary KICK LIKE A GIRL.
KICK LIKE A GIRL is one of three presentations from HBO Family debuting May 28 on HBO. The others are Jay Rosenblatt's "Beginning Filmmaking" (5:30-6:00 p.m.), about an award-winning filmmaker's efforts to teach his four-year-old daughter his craft, and Amy Schatz's "Hard Times for an American Girl: The Great Depression" (6:30-7:00 p.m.), showing what it was like to "group up" during the Great Depression. The feature film "Kit Kittredge: An American Girl" will be seen immediately following the three documentaries at 7:00 p.m.
