Ok so there was this movie i saw part of when i was in school. The basic plot i can remember is that it was an 80s-ish movie and the girl disguising herself as a boy so she could play basketball on the boys team. I think her dad knew and was ok with it, and I know one of the guys found out around the middle of the movie when he saw a picture of her in her prom dress. While I think the movie was from the 80s i think it took place in a time period a little earlier, but i could be wrong. Please someone help me find this because it is driving me crazy!
“Just One of the Guys”? It’s football, but there’s a prom scene
Forward to 1:08 of the movie

I swear I have the same question and found this page via Google. At first, I thought it was the Fish That Saved Pittsburgh, but after more Googling, think it may be Hoop Dreams.
Sorry, not Hoop Dreams. Maybe it’s the Fish though… Going to watch it soon and find out.
I figured it out 3/4 of the way through Fish That Saved Pittsburgh. The movie we are thinking of had Bernard King in it and is called Fast Break.
Fast break from 1979 was looking for it also!
Jumping for Joy was made in the early 2000s but was set in the 60s I believe!
i had the same ideas and flashbacks…..and its definately bernard kings fast break
thanks for the help
