The fourth annual Challenge Cup kicks off tonight with an exciting new format and 10 of the league’s 12 teams in action.

The season kicks off today and will run through November, with two separate weeks off in the summer to accommodate for the Women’s World Cup down under.

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.

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.

On Saturday, the governing body threatened legal action against its women’s national team, who went on strike over budget cuts and pay equity issues while prepping for this week’s SheBelieves Cup.
