You have earned your right to be a member of the Chicago Force women's tackle football team for the 2007 season. The Chicago Force has proven over the last four seasons to be one of the most respected and formidable teams in the IWFL. You are about to have a life-changing experience....you will test yourself....push yourself to levels you never thought possible. And along the way...you will make friends for a lifetime....and become part of the Force family. The Chicago Force was organized under the leadership of Lisa Cole in 2003. She brought together women who had the desire to live their dream and play a game they had been told for years that they couldn't....the game was football...not powder puff football....but pad-wearing, helmet-crunching full tackle football. These women banded together and became a family. They practiced in empty parking lots....under street lights.....in abandoned warehouses....any place they could get together to learn about the game and practice their skills. They worked hard....put in hours and hours of learning the plays....how to make a block....how to catch and throw a ball....how to run a trap....a slant....they practiced and practiced. Then the big day came....their first game. Most were nervous....family, friends, fans were out there....how would they do...equipment had not arrived until just a few practices prior to the game....some had never taken or given a hit or tackle. They stood outside the locker room....stood together as a team...one family of women with one common goal....to play a game to the best of their ability. But what they really were making was History.....and the women of the Force continue to make history year after year. In each of our four seasons, the Chicago Force has made the playoffs toward the National Championship. Is this the year that the Force will go all the way....become the 2007 IWFL Champions? All the elements are in place....good coaching....a strong core of veterans...many promising rookies ... all talented and dedicated women. This is our year.....the year that the Chicago Force women's tackle football team will become the National champions....join us to make it happen. Welcome to our Force Family!!!! Owners of the Chicago Force |
