I remember the DC Divas got a fair amount of media attention and interest in the Washington area when I lived there.
I don’t think there’s much future for women’s American football.
Participation in boys football is declining and there doesn’t appear to be any movement to create girls football at the high school level. It would cost so much to do that.
The WFA may continue, but there are only so many grown women with jobs who will be interested in playing such a painful sport in their free time. There are men’s leagues like that too, but not many. (Though, a you allude to, they may be more popular in mostly black communities).
Women’s rugby seems more viable.
