Own a piece of women's basketball history with this vintage-inspired New England Blizzard T-shirt, featuring the team's logo with an authentically distressed, weathered finish. The Blizzard competed in the pioneering American Basketball League from 1996 to 1998, playing their home games at the Springfield Civic Center and Hartford Civic Center. Led by local star and former UConn standout Jennifer Rizzotti, the team consistently drew some of the league's largest crowds and helped establish professional women's basketball in New England.
The Blizzard's run came to an abrupt end when the ABL ceased operations in December 1998 amid financial struggles and competition from the WNBA. During their tenure, they were among the ABL's most successful franchises in terms of attendance and fan support, drawing passionate crowds and helping prove the viability of professional women's basketball in the market.
Printed on premium Gildan 5000 heavy cotton (5.3 oz, 100% preshrunk), this classic unisex t-shirt offers exceptional comfort and durability. The tear-away label adds modern convenience to this historical tribute. Available in sizes S-5XL in various popular colors, the shirt features the iconic Blizzard logo on the front only, produced using state-of-the-art direct-to-garment printing for vibrant, long-lasting results.
