HistoryESDAA is the oldest Deaf High School Athletic Association in the US, founded in 1927. That year Fred Moore, a teacher at the Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf in New Jersey, organized the first boys' basketball tournament. The nine participating schools in this first tournament included Kendall, Fanwood, Pennsylvania, American, New Jersey, St. Joseph's, Lexington, Virginia and Maryland. The Katzenbach School (New Jersey) emerged as the first team to win ESDAA boys' basketball championship. Boys' basketball was expanded to three divisions in 1994 then formed back to two divisions in 2008. The trophy presented to the winner of the ESDAA Div I tournament is known as the George Harlow Trophy; the winning team keeps this trophy for one year and passes it on to the winner the following year. Hence, it is called a "traveling trophy". The girls' basketball tournament was formed in 1977. The first tournament was hosted by the Maryland School for the Deaf and the first champion was Model Secondary School for the Deaf. The girls' basketball tournament grew quickly so that in 1979 it was formed into two divisions. The girls' volleyball tournament was first formed in 1981, and Model Secondary School for the Deaf was the first champion. The first Division II girls' volleyball tournament was held in 1999, and Delaware School for the Deaf was the first team to win ESDAA Division II volleyball title. ReferencesExternal links
