- The Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) was founded in 1971 to govern collegiate women's athletics in the United States and to administer national championships (see AIAW Champions). It evolved out of the Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (founded in 1967). The association was one of the biggest advancements for women's athletics on the collegiate level. Throughout the 1970s, the AIAW grew rapidly in membership and influence, in parallel with the national growth of women's sports following the enactment of Title IX. The AIAW functioned in the equivalent role for college women's programs that the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) had been doing for men's programs. Owing to its own success, the AIAW was in a vulnerable position that precipitated conflicts with the NCAA in the early 1980s. Following a one-year overlap in which both organizations staged women's championships, the AIAW discontinued operation, and most member schools continued their women's athletics programs under the governance of the NCAA.

- Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) grundades 1971, för att bedriva organiserad damidrott på college- och universitetsnivå i USA, och arrangera på samma sätt som NCAA redan gjorde på herrsidan. AIAW bildades ur den kommitté som tillsatts 1967, och växte snabbt under 1970-talet, som ett resultat av Title IX-effekten. Efter diverse motsättningar på förbundsnivå under tidigt 1980-tal, där båda förbunden arrangerat dammästerskap under läsåret/säsongen 1981/1982, kom den högre utbildningens damidrottsprogram i stället att uppgå i NCAA. AIAW upplöstes den 30 juni 1983. (sv)
