In the early planning stages, the Force was originally planning to play in the National Women's Football Association, but after the NWFA folded, they decided to join the upstart Women's Football Alliance.

History

In 2008, Robert Gold was selected as the team's first head coach. They held tryouts in Ambridge, Cranberry, and Chartiers Valley for their inaugural 2009 season. From 2009 to 2011 they played their home games at Rubenstein Stadium in suburban Ambridge, Pennsylvania. In 2012 the Force moved their home field to William V. Campbell Athletic Field in suburban Munhall, Pennsylvania. In 2013, the Force went on a re-building hiatus. They returned for the 2014 season in the WFA.
