Independent Women's Football League
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Independent Women's Football League was founded in 2000, and began play in 2001. IWFL founders began with the goal to establish a quality women's football league that would be respected as the top level of women's tackle football in the world. Currently over 1,600 women play on 41 IWFL teams across the United States and Canada.[1]
