The Boston Militia Face the New York Nemesis as Their 3rd Season Kicks Off on April 3, 2010

Boston, MA, January 01, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Meet New England’s other professional football team - the Boston Militia. The all women football team announce the kickoff of their third season on April 3, 2010. The Boston Militia, Queens of the Gridiron, are members of the Independent Women’s Football League (IWFL), a full tackle women’s football league focused on creating a competitive environment for the women who play the game and fans that come out to watch them. The IWFL currently has over 1600 women playing the sport for 45 teams across North America from Southern California to Montreal and Washington to Florida.

The Boston Militia found its footing when Ernie Boch, Jr., entrepreneur and founding member of Ernie and the Automatics, stepped in as Chairman and CEO in late 2007. With Boch’s unwavering support, the Boston militia had an excellent season in 2008 and 2009.

These “Queens of the Gridiron” are professionals – dental assistants, psychotherapists, accountants, engineers, and teachers. The Boston Militia Women’s Football team wears the same equipment and follows the same rules as men. The only difference is that they are women.

Mr. Boch explains, “I am looking forward to the Boston Militia’s third season to build off of the success of the 2009 season.”

Their season consists of eight games. Home games are played at Dilboy Stadium, 110 Alewife Brook Parkway, Somerville, Massachusetts.

A fan at a recent home game said, “It's not a powder puff league. It's not flag football. It's real, tackle football and there are collisions and hits.”

In 2008, their first year record was six wins and two losses. In 2009, they were undefeated during the regular season, winning all eight games including the Eastern Conference Semifinals. They lost the Eastern Conference Championship, but vowed to come back and win it in 2010.

They are looking forward to 2010 as another exciting season. Their 2010 opening away game is on April 3, 2010 against the New York Nemesis. April 10th is their first home game against the Connecticut Crushers at Dilboy Stadium.

The team sells Boston Militia merchandise to help defray costs. Among the most popular items they sell are pre-shrunk women’s 100% combined ring spun cotton jerseys in either black or red (team colors). They are made especially for women because they are cut differently than men’s apparel to be more flattering to the female body. The jersey features a handmade black and silver sparkle rhinestone designed Boston Militia skull logo.

These jerseys are designed to make you the sports star in any crowd and a great way to show your passion for women’s football and your loyalty for the Boston Militia. Who knows, this comfortable jersey may become your wardrobe staple.
