History

The Justice were established in late 2008 and originally planning to be a member of the National Women's Football Association
National Women's Football Association
The National Women's Football Association was a full-contact American football league for women headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. The league was founded by Catherine Masters in 2000, as the two benchmark teams, the Alabama Renegades and the Nashville Dream played each other six times in...

. Once the NWFA folded, however, the Justice began play in the spring 2009 season as a member of the Independent Women's Football League
Independent Women's Football League

 by a score of 9-8.

2010 proved to be an even better season record-wise, as the Justice finished 6-1. However, because of the IWFL's playoff method, the Justice were left out of the postseason (only two teams per division got to go, and the Justice finished third behind the Montreal Blitz and New England Intensity-coincidentally the same two teams they faced in the previous year's postseason).

For the 2011 season, the Justice will be playing as an Independent team.
