More than 250 girls from 18 high schools in the greater Austin area are participating in the program, as the sport aims for sanctioning from the UIL, which governs interscholastic competition.
"This is such a special moment and an incredible opportunity for our female student-athletes to get out there, compete and be part of something bigger than themselves," Austin ISD Academic Coordinator Crystal Victorino said in a news release.
Meanwhile, CTX Sports runs a league in Leander, starting April 12.
