Welcome to the Alabama High School Football Historical Society.
We have expanded our research to include all team sports in Alabama.
Initially our
goal is to preserve the history of every team sport played within
the state. We also provide other important information including
coaching records, tournament results, state championship summaries and much more. If you can provide accurate scores or
any other information related to our efforts we encourage you to contact
us.
Although girl's have played high school basketball in Alabama since the 1920s,
it did not become an AHSAA sanctioned sport until the 1970s.
The first AHSAA state championship tournament was played following the 1978 basketball season.
The first recognized state champions were 4A-Jeff Davis, 3A-Sumter County, 2A-Winfield and 1A-Mars Hill.
Since then more and more schools have joined in making girl's basketball one of the primary sports in Alabama.

Following years of research, in June of 2007 the AHSFHS.org website became a reality.
Many people have gotten involved to assist us with research of the schools
and teams to make this a reality.
Other team sports have joined football as a part of our research.
Initially AHSFHS.org will include information about coaches, state playoffs, all
state teams, player awards and team records.
It is virtually impossible to provide scores for every game for every
team. Who knows, later even that may be a possibility. There is still a lot of
work to do with the all state teams of years past but our intentions are to find
every team.
We encourage everyone to get involved in helping us provide the most accurate
information possible. If you have information that would be useful to us please
let us know.
