Sacramento Sirens part of WAFC, IWFL by The Sacramento Sirens April 1, 2002 Former WAFL teams join forces to form Women's Affiliated Football Conference Two teams join existing Independent Women's Football League The Sacramento Sirens are pleased to announce the formation of the Women's Affiliated Football Conference (WAFC). The WAFC is made up of multiple divisions of established women's football teams in different cities who have decided to continue to work together to play football for the Fall 2002 Season. The WAFC was incorporated specifically to protect the integrity of existing teams and to provide a place for quality teams to play without committing them to a league. The WAFC will provide teams an opportunity to thoroughly research existing leagues to establish their legitimacy and viability before becoming full members. The WAFC has three divisions of 4 teams each. Divisions include the Central Pacific Division, the South Pacific Division, and the South Atlantic Division. The Sirens will play teams from the Central and South Pacific Divisions that include the following: Central Pacific Sacramento Sirens Oakland Banshees Hawaii Legend San Francisco StingRayZ (former SF Tsunami players) South Pacific California Quake Los Angeles Lasers San Diego SunFire Arizona Caliente In addition, the Sacramento Sirens and the Oakland Banshees have joined the Independent Women's Football League (IWFL) as exhibition teams for Spring/Fall 2002. After initial discussions with several leagues, the IWFL proved to be one of the most reputable women's football leagues doing business today. The Sirens and the Banshees applied for and were granted limited membership for this season as a way for both teams and the IWFL to establish a working relationship and facilitate further discussion of full membership for all WAFC teams for 2003.     Back
