Heard of NCAA women's soccer? What immediately enter our minds when we hear the word soccer or football are men playing in the out field. But women too can play football like men do. Although soccer is often played by the male gender and we often associate this contact sport with strength, stamina and endurance, women can play the game like their counterpart. With their strength and agility, men seem to always belong to the advantage side, but women can play soccer in a different fashion.
The National Collegiate Athletic Association also known as NCAA or "N-C-Double-A" is a voluntary group of approximately 1200 conferences, organizations, institutions and individuals which organize several athletic programs for a number of universities and colleges in the United States of America. The games of this event include basketball, baseball, gymnastics, volleyball, hockey and a whole lot more. The NCAA has played a vital role in the recognition of women in sports which men normally dominate. Believe it or not women can play competitive football.
NCAA women's soccer features football which is different from the usual. Although soccer for women only came to life in recent years, there are already a number of professional leagues around that give women the chance to play game.
Soccer for women is not as popular as the men's soccer division, but despite this reality, there are an increasing number of people who love to see women play the game. The W-League, Superliga Femenina in Spain, Toppserien in Norway, Women's Bundesliga in Germany and Austria, and the Women's United Soccer Association in the United States (WUSA) are some of the well known soccer for women's leagues in the world today.
