Billie is a high school girl who joins a boys track team back in 1965, 11 October 1998
10/10
Author: Steven M. Kaden from Las Vegas, NV

This is an excellent family film. Billie is a high school girl who joins a boys track team in a time when things like this just wasn't done. Lots of smiles and laughs. Great entertainment for everyone. Rates up there with Disney's Parent Trap. It stars Patty Duke when she was still a child star. Highly recommended.
