Title IX Requires Adding Many Female Scholarships
This is terribly unlikely because there's a push to even not teach history in school. Only math, science and reading, writing.
However, what I believe could have a possible chance with the right leadership, is adding Women's Pool Division to NCAA sport. Several schools that have added football and many of the former FCS football programs have moved up into the FBS division. Because of Title IX, many programs must add enough female scholarships to stay even with the male sports scholarships. Adding football means +75 scholarships(iiirc). Moving up adds about 15-20 scholarships. So many schools are adding news sports. For the less competitive programs (which all of these schools are) look for sports that are less facilities up-keep type sports, keeping the monies toward money cows. Pool requires about eight to ten tables, reclothing costs and the space of the room. Cheaper than adding or upkeeping aquatic sports, lacrosse, etc. That could about 8 to 10 scholarships. A women's pool division set-up similar to the Mosconi Cup would be ideal for these programs. And could potentially turn into a fan-friendly sport. But, it would have to get to and be passed by the NCAA. I will concede that, this also is unlikely, even with the proper leadership.
In China, Pool/Billiards is part of the school curriculum.
"These championships were played at the Shanghai Huimin Middle School for the second time having been played there last year as well. The winner of the U/19 Division, Long Ze Huang is a student at this school, and joins his school mate Kong De Jing who was successful in winning the U17 world title last year. Quite extraordinary that the same school can produce two world champions in consecutive years."

If you can imagine Pool/Billiards in school- tell them what you envision!
