Since wheelchair softball's humble beginnings, women have been
every much a part of the game as their
male counterparts. In fact, until recently, most teams have
historically been comprised of both male and female players. The
NWSA is dedicated to encouraging more females to participate not
only as players but also to serve on various committees of the
organization.
For over 30 years, women have played side-by-side with male
players with their local team. In 2003, history was made with
the introduction of the American Divas - a women's team
dedicated to promoting additional opportunities for female
athletes. At the National Tournament that same year, the Divas
finished 15th in the country.
A new all-women's team will hit the field comprised of
women athletes from across the country. The new team is looking
for athletes, coaches and support staff and will be traveling to
Chicago this summer to compete in the National Tournament. To
