The Beginning

The club now known as the Splash began play as the Charleston Splash in the 2008–09 season. The next season, they will keep the name the Charleston Splash. In their first year in Charleston, the Splash finished 4th in an 8– team South Division.

Prior to the 2008–09 WBCBL season the Splash pulled off a blockbuster athletic tryout. The tryout worked out well; for the selected 15 out of over 50 women athletes that tried out they proved to be a hustling, fundamentally sound group of players who helped the Splash Kick start their first season. A season that all of the South Carolina’s Lowcountry people can be proud of. In the 2009 WBCBL Season, the Splash stunned all of the Lowcountry and the Splash supporter with a season record of 7–3, and advanced to the Southern Regional’s. In the regional’s, Charleston managed to give there all but lost to the Atlanta Lady Battlecats 70–65.
