2005 OKC Lightning Tryouts
The OKC Lightning Women’s Football Team will be hosting tryouts for the 2005 season beginning in September. The 2004 OKC Lightning were the Champions of both the South West Division and the Southern Conference of the National Women’s Football Association. The NWFA is the largest full-contact women’s football league in the world with more than 40 teams in 23 states nationwide.
All women interested in playing full-contact football are invited to attend. You must be at least 18, have your own health insurance and be available for practices, games and away-game travel. A one-time $35 tryout fee and signing of team and league waivers will also be required. Anyone interested in playing or in learning more about our team should attend. You do not need to know anything about football as long as you have the desire to work hard and to learn the game.
Tryouts will be held at Taft Stadium on Saturday, September 25 and Sunday, September 26 from 10:00am to 1:00pm. Registration begins at 9:00am. Taft Stadium is located at 27th and N. May Avenue in Oklahoma City. Follow-up tryouts (if you missed the tryouts in September) will be held on Saturday and Sunday, October 23-24, November 20-21 and December 17-18. The location for these tryouts is yet to be determined.
