The Montreal Blitz is a semi professional full contact women’s football team - the only Canadian team to play in a US based league - the IWFL (Independent Women’s Football League). The season runs from April through to June and matches are played mostly in the north-eastern USA.

The Blitz was founded in 2002 and the program has been growing steadily for the last 7 years. The team is made up of female athletes from every walk of life. Women aged 18 to 40 come together to learn the game, train hard and prepare for yet another successful season.

The 2008 season marked a breakthrough year for the Blitz as they battled their way to victory over the Clarksville Fox in Chicago and came home as the 2008 IWFL National Champions.
