Description

History of the Nevada Storm In the spring of 2010, Women’s Full Contact Football officially arrived in Northern Nevada with the formation of the team now known as the Nevada Storm. With a roster of just six women, these visionary ladies cut their teeth in the 6’s player format against similar startup teams as they learned the subtleties of America’s favorite sport. In the spring of 2011, the Nevada Storm added six more dedicated women to their roster as they continued to sharpen their skills in the game of football. Finishing the season by winning half the games they competed in, it became obvious the Nevada Storm had something special.

The past few seasons have been tough for the Nevada Storm, but with growth comes lessons. The team had a turnaround year in 2018, winning the most games it has ever won since 2013. The team finished 4-3 for the season, while taking advantage of an opportunity when 3 big teams left the IWFL at the start of playoffs. This gave the Nevada Storm a chance of a lifetime to capitalize on this opportunity and take on the Phoenix Phantomz for a shot at the West Coast Conference Title and at the IWFL National Championship Game. The Storm came out on top against Phoenix and started preparing for the Houston Energy, which was a first time match up between the two teams. Unfortunately, the Storm fell to the Houston Energy in Houston, Texas on July 21st, 2018, but it gave the Storm a taste of what it is like to play at that level. The drive, fight, and resiliency of the Storm have only made them thirsty for more!

The Thunder Rolls The 2012 season proved to be a banner year for the Nevada Storm. As news of the team’s accomplishments spread throughout the community, the roster increased to twenty players, prompting the progression of the Nevada Storm into the 8’s player format of Women’s Full Contact Football. Under the direction of former Head Coach Joel Primus and former owner Jeff Leathers, the Nevada Storm became the WSFL’s Division and Regional Champions, finishing the season undefeated, with a margin of victory of 239 to 32. The program has only continued to grow from there!
