We chatted with a few power players in women’s soccer about the NWSL’s 2023 marketing efforts, and the crucial role athletes play in driving awareness to the sport.

World soccer’s governing body announced yesterday that it will commit $152M — including $110M in prize money — to July’s Women’s World Cup (WWC), and plans to finally dole out equal earnings to men and women at following World Cups.

According to a report yesterday, the global soccer players’ union sent a letter to FIFA in October with three proposals for equal conditions and prize money at the men’s and women’s World Cups (WCs), months before the women’s tourney kicks off in July.

The owners of MLS’ Real Salt Lake (RSL) announced the launch of the sister team on Saturday, confirming that the club will begin play in 2024 with a new look, a new group of investors and a new sponsor.

Mere hours before CanWNT players were set to testify before the Canadian government, Canada Soccer released details of their proposed collective bargaining agreement (CBA) yesterday, shockingly making private negotiations public with no warning.

With International Women’s Day just two days away, all eyes remain on the ongoing fight for equal pay and treatment in international women’s soccer, specifically CanWNT’s tumultuous battle with Canada Soccer.

It’s a tumultuous time in international women’s soccer. And that was before the news that Canada Soccer’s finances are worse than you thought.

With less than five months to go until the 2023 Women’s World Cup, three French national team stars, including captain Wendie Renard, stunningly announced that they will not play internationally until changes are made within the federation.

Each team will play 34 regular-season games, facing each of their conference opponents at least twice, as well as a handful of games against non-conference foes.

The world No. 6 CanWNT continued to play in purple-shirted protest over the weekend, notching a key 2–0 SheBelieves comeback win against No. 9 Brazil on Sunday.

The eighth annual SheBelieves Cup fully embodied the tourney’s female empowerment theme during last night’s kickoff, with the CanWNT making a powerful fashion statement and the USWNT (literally) standing in solidarity with their opponent.

The eighth annual SheBelieves Cup begins tomorrow with four world Top 15 squads (No. 1 USWNT, No. 6 CanWNT, No. 9 Brazil and No. 11 Japan) tuning up ahead of the women’s World Cup in July.
