The Pennsylvania Rebellion were a National Pro Fastpitch softball team based in Washington, Pennsylvania. They were added as an expansion team for the 2014 season, receiving the roster and draft position of the recently defunct NY/NJ Comets. They folded after the 2016 season.
The Rebellion joined NPF for the 2014 season, and received both the NY/NJ Comets' roster and draft position. This resulted in Pennsylvania having the overall first pick in the 2014 NPF draft, which they used for Arizona State's pitcher Dallas Escobedo, who pitched for the Rebellion's first ever win.
Overall, the Rebellion struggled through the season, batting a league-worst .199. Manager Rick Bertagnolli resigned following a 2–10 start, citing 'personal reasons.' Assistant coach Stacey Rice, was named to replace him. The Rebellion's inaugural season ended with 9–39 record, finishing in last place.
On January 14, the Rebellion announced that the head coach of the Netherlands women's national softball team, Craig Montvidas, was hired as the Rebellion's coach. On January 26, Steve Zavacky was promoted to general manager. The team missed the playoffs, finishing in last place.
