Denver Dream: The Women's Football Team Taking the Mile High City by Storm

When most people think of football in Denver, they probably first think of the Denver Broncos. And for good reason - the Broncos have been a staple of Denver sports culture since their inception in 1960, winning three Super Bowls and boasting some of the greatest players to ever grace the field.

But there's another football team in town that's been making a name for itself over the past few years: the Denver Dream. This women's football team plays in the Women's Football Alliance (WFA), a national league made up of teams from across the country.

The Denver Dream was founded in 2017 by head coach Greg Johnson, who saw an opportunity to bring women's football to Denver and give local women the chance to play at a high level. The team has quickly become a fan favorite, drawing crowds of thousands of people to their home games at Aurora Public Schools Stadium.

So what makes the Denver Dream different from other football teams in Denver? For one thing, it's made up entirely of women - from the players on the field to the coaching staff on the sidelines. This is an important distinction in a sport that has historically been dominated by men, and the Denver Dream is helping to break down barriers and redefine what it means to be a football player.

But don't be fooled - these women are serious about their sport. The Denver Dream competes at a high level in the WFA, facing off against tough opponents from across the country. They've made the playoffs in each of their first two seasons, and hope to continue that success into the future.

Of course, being a women's football team comes with its challenges. The players are not paid and often have to juggle full-time jobs and families alongside their football commitments. It can also be difficult to find practice fields and other resources, as many football facilities are geared towards men's teams.

Despite these challenges, the Denver Dream has become a beloved part of the Denver community. The team is actively involved in local charity work, partnering with organizations like Girls on the Run and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver. And their games are a sight to behold - from the hard hits on the field to the raucous cheers in the stands, the atmosphere at a Denver Dream game is electric.

In a city that loves its football, the Denver Dream is carving out its own space and inspiring young girls and women to follow their dreams both on and off the field. With talented players, dedicated coaches, and a passionate fan base, this team is poised for even greater success in the years to come.
