NCAA Women's Field Hockey Championship
Field hockey was one of twelve women's sports added to the NCAA championship program for the 1981-82 school year, as the NCAA engaged in battle with the AIAW for sole governance of women's collegiate sports. The AIAW continued to conduct its established championship program in the same twelve (and other) sports; however, after a year of dual women's championships, the NCAA conquered the AIAW and usurped its authority and membership. The first NCAA women's national championship events were staged November 21-November 22, 1981, in cross country and field hockey.
