College Women
Every summer, the opportunities for upward-aspiring athletes grow, and the Northeast Academy’s addition of a women’s program is another example of such.

Southern California named its two representatives to the Women’s Club 7s National Championship, and two very different sides are heading to Iowa. Defending champion San Diego Surfers will be looking for its third title and boasts a nice mix of hometown talent with players currently training at the Chula Vista OTC.
California (and UN Reno) hosted its first-ever all-star assembly, giving women from DII Southern California and West Coast conference the opportunity to train and play at a higher level.
Minnesota’s Northern Lights Collegiate Conference (NLCC) announced its women’s college schedules for the fall and reintroduced a relatively new competition into the union's offerings: hybrid leagues. Never heard of them? You’re not alone.
