Founded
1996Leading female athlete retailer in Westport, CT, offering specialized products and information for female athletes nationwide.
When the The Female Athlete was born almost four years ago, we didn't know that the Women's World Cup would create feverish interest worldwide. We didn't know that the WNBA would thrive so gloriously. We could not foresee that women's professional softball would prosper. All we knew was that our evenings and weekends were happily dominated by our four daughters athletic pursuits, and we could not find the female specific athletic products that their bodies and interest demanded. Your response to our first five catalogs tells us that you heartily agree. That is why this fall we are shipping 1.3 million catalogs to female athletes nationwide with 20 million on the way in four separate catalogs next year.
That is why our website, thefemaleathlete.com, is the internet leader in female specific athletic products and a great source of information about female sports, too. That is why Julie Foudy, Women's World Cup co-captain has joined our company as an advisor and spokeswoman, and why Dick Schaap, noted sports journalist and longtime Women's Sports Foundation supporter has joined our Board of Directors. We are all part of Team TFA, here to serve you, the female athlete, and your mom, dad, and coach. When you join Team TFA, at our website, you discover not only the best products but also the most up-to-date information on female athletics. You also get a forum to tell us what you think about current teams, sports topics, and products.
