The Boston Militia were a women's full-contact football team in the Women's Football Alliance of which they were two-time champions (2011, 2014). Previously, the Militia played in the Independent Women's Football League from 2008 until 2010, winning the IWFL championship in 2010. Based in Boston, Massachusetts, the Militia played its home games at Dilboy Stadium in nearby Somerville.
On January 5, 2015, the team announced they were discontinuing operations due to a lack of teams to play against in the region.[1] Following a transfer of ownership, the team has been reorganized as the Boston Renegades.[2][3]
