History

The Nashville Dream was established by Catherine Masters in 2000 as one of the two founding teams of the National Women's Football Association. The first season consisted of six exhibition games between the Nashville Dream and the Alabama Renegades, with each team winning three games. Masters sold the team in 2001 to team quarterback Christie Trost. After a disappointing 2001 season, the team qualified for the league playoffs every year until 2006, although they never made it to a championship game. Despite their successful record, the franchise was plagued by low attendance and financial insolvency. In December 2005, Head Coach Ben Eakin bought the team from Trost and attempted to resuscitate attendance levels by lowering ticket prices and increasing marketing efforts. The franchise folded two years later.
