The NCAA added 12 women's sports in the 1981-82 college year. The first national championship events were held in Nov. 21-22, 1981, in cross-country and field hockey. NCAA field hockey championships have been held in all three NCAA divisions since that time. Prior to the the NCAA championship the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) conducted national championships in many sports, including field hockey. The first AIAW national college field hockey championship was held in 1975. Division II and III championships were added in 1979. The AIAW held its final championships during the 1981-82 school year. In its efforts to continually raise the level of field hockey in the United States, US Field Hockey introduced its Olympic Development initiative -- The Futures Program -- in 1990. This elite program features more than 4,000 athletes participating in specialized monthly training sessions. Through Futures, US Field Hockey evaluates and identifies talented young athletes with the potential to become future Olympic level athletes. All athletes must enter the program through a trial procedure. Depending on where an athlete resides, different options are available. |
