The Division I Women’s Senior Club playoffs will feature teams from Washington D.C., Boston, Chicago, Seattle, Kansas City, San Diego, Denver, Atlanta, Portland, Berkeley, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, and defending champions, New York. This tourney serves as qualifying round for the Women’s Club National Championships held in Orlando, Fla., in early November.
