Washington, DC – The D.C. Divas announced their 2014 schedule today, and their home slate may be the most challenging in the team’s 14-year history.

The Divas open their home schedule in April 19 with a contest against the Chicago Force.  As reigning WFA national champions, the Force are #1 in pre-season rankings. The D.C. Divas rank second among active women’s football franchises with 93 victories, while the Chicago Force are in third place with 91. The Divas’ home opener will be the first meeting between these two historic franchises, putting on what should be a terrific show for local fans.

On April 26, the Divas host their division rivals, the Columbus Comets. The Comets always give the Divas a hard-fought, physical game, and the 2014 meeting of these two teams should be no different.

The Divas play their third home game on May 17 with their first-ever meeting against the Atlanta Phoenix. The Phoenix won the WFA’s southeast region in 2013, advancing to the National Conference semifinals. In two seasons, the Atlanta Phoenix have compiled a 15-1 regular season record, establishing themselves as arguably the top women’s football team in the southeastern United States.

Finally, the Divas will close out their season at home on June 7 by once again staring down their archrivals, the Boston Militia. The Militia are #2 in preseason rankings while the Divas are ranked #3, a sure sign that this will be an exciting game in a terrific rivalry.

Season tickets for the D.C. Divas’ 2014 campaign are now available for purchase online. Season tickets are only available before the first home game on April 19, so don’t delay in getting the discount they provide.
