•HRES 373 IH 
women’s college athletic participation has increased by 
403 percent; 
Whereas women still face financial barriers to participating

scholarship dollars going to female athletes; 
Whereas a record number of girls and women are playing 
soccer, with a dramatic growth rate of 24 percent since 
1987; 
Whereas this growth has far eclipsed that of men players, 
which grew by 8 percent in the same timeframe; 
Whereas women now represent 43 percent of all soccer play-
ers in 2002; 
Whereas soccer is the second most popular United States 
team sport behind basketball in 2002; 
Whereas the 8-team Women’s United Soccer Association 
(WUSA), including the Washington Freedom, suspended 
operations 5 days before the start of the World Cup; and

Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
(1) congratulates the Washington Freedom 
women’s soccer team for winning the 2003 WUSA

ers, coaches, and support staff who were instru-
