	Na Fianna was founded at the end of 1997 and competed in the Southern California Division for the first time in 1998. From these humble beginnings Na Fianna has attained some great successes, representing Southern California at the NACB National Championships in 1998, 2003, and 2004. NaFianna has won the Southern California League in 2002, 2003 and 2004. NaFianna also became North American National Champions in September 2004 and 2005. The second win in a row, meant that Na Fianna would be moved up a division to compete at the Jr. A level. Na Fianna recently competed in the 2006 North American National Championships where they competed at the Jr. A level, reaching the finals. The club has a very strong team spirit and is all about women playing sport in a fun and competitive environment. The term Na Fianna translates from Gaeilge, the national language of Ireland, to mean "The Warriors". Since its inception Na Fianna has grown to a club of over thirty playing members.
