Are you part of the Ohio Attack that is based out of Louisville?

We are based out of Troy, OH

??? Ohio Attack in NE Ohio has been around for many years, and will have a 12u, 14u and 18u in 2017. Might want to find a new name.

 

[luvthegame]

We investigated the name through the proper state channels, and we have permission to use this name.

We've been Ohio Attack for the entire season. We wanted to make sure that the name was OK to use before we began the 501 C 3 process. All the steps we have taken so far with the state has shown that the name was not registered.

 

[SoftballGirl12]

Maybe Ohio Attack from NE Ohio just didn't fill out papers to have a 501 C3. Wouldn't this be confusing for players with two different organizations with the same name?

 

[mom33]

It doesn't have to be confusing. We are in Troy, Ohio and those girls trying out will know who we are. To be honest, its a little more involved than filling out papers. Becoming a non -profit is a series of steps to follow that involves attorneys & accountants. One of the first steps is to register with the state and a name search is performed and if it is not taken, then you can apply under that name. The NE Attack states it is a non profit on their website and may get their status being "under the umbrella" of a non profit- many organizations operate that way. There are so many benefits to having that non-profit status.

It is unfortunate that this happened and may serve as a great learning tool for those organizations that operate under another organization's status.
