History:
The Women’s Professional Football
League (WPFL) prides itself in being
the “original and longest operating
women’s professional football
league in the United States.”
Now overseeing 14 teams, the WPFL
has come a long way from having just
three founding teams (Houston Energy,
Austin Rage, and the New England Storm)
playing in 1999, to over 17 teams
in its roster. More teams are in the
process of licensing and are slated
for play in the 2005 season.
To promote
the organization and its goals, WPFL
embarked on a number of national media
campaigns, and was successful in being
recognized in the book “Attagirl”.
The WPFL is governed by a set of board
members, comprised of individual team
owners.
