Magical Rewind: Double Teamed

Double Teamed (2002)

In this fact-based film, twins Heidi (Annie McElwain) and Heather Burge (Poppi Monroe) take an unusual route to becoming WNBA stars. As teens, the girls enroll in a large high school in hopes of being noticed by college talent scouts. Before long, the school’s basketball coach enlists the Burge sisters to play for his team. They begin to shine on the court, but before they succeed, they must learn to accept one another’s differences and deal with their overbearing dad (Nick Searcy).

This was my jam! I absolutely LOVED this movie growing up because I was into sports as a girl and these two played a sport I played so immediately they were my idols. Watching this again, I found it a lot more entertaining than when I was younger but I think it was because I found a lot more scenes a bit ridiculous that I am sure as a kid I took a lot more serious. If you like sports definitely check this one out.
