The USWNT roster has undergone sweeping change under coach Emma Hayes. Let's rank the new players by how likely it is they'll represent the U.S. at the next World Cup.

The NWSL began with eight teams in 2013 before expanding to what it is today. See when each team began playing in the league.

African Footballer of the Year Barbra Banda was made to wait to make her mark on the Women's Africa Cup of Nations -- the top tournament for women's national teams on the continent -- but she has made up for lost time.

Many celebrities are investing in NWSL franchises, including Kevin Durant, Serena Williams, Patrick Mahomes and more.


"Crazy," "dangerous" or inevitable? The NWSL's commissioner vows to follow the NFL's path to 32 teams. But questions linger, including from execs inside the league.

An independent investigation found that Bay FC coach Albertin Montoya did not violate the National Women's Soccer League's antiharassment, discrimination and bullying policy, but found shortcomings in his communication style.

From superstars like Orlando Pride's Barbra Banda, to Gotham FC teen rookie Stella Nwamekye, here are 10 players at the Women's Africa Cup of Nations that will be familiar to NWSL and English Women's Super League fans.

Bay FC forward Rachael Kundananji told ESPN that Zambia will shake up the established order at the Women's Africa Cup of Nations, breaking the stranglehold of Nigeria and defending champions South Africa.

The NWSL announced on Wednesday that it will not play games next June for the start of the 2026 World Cup, which will be predominantly played in the United States.
