Starting a new team is hard and requires load of funding, to say the least. Starting an all-girls' team is even harder.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm all for it (hey, I'm on one) but really, be prepared for challenges. It's hard to recruit girls (we have about 15 girls on the team this year, most whom are underclassmen), I can't even begin to tell you how many girls told me that they didn't want to join because they were too busy, etc.

On the otherhand, at the Connecticut Regional this weekend, a lot of girls came up to us to tell us how lucky we were to be in an all-girls team because they couldn't/weren't allowed to work on what they really wanted. A lot of parents also liked the idea and were asking us how the team started.
