In 2020, as the NWSL struggled in a Covid-19 riddled environment to provide its USWNT players with enough league games to adequately prepare for the Olympic Games, many players turned to England’s Women’s Super League (WSL). With big-name players such as Christen Press, Tobin Heath, Sam Mewis, and Rose Lavelle taking their talents to Europe, the WSL popped up on the radars of American soccer fans.
The emergence of ata football in 2019 and BBC and Sky Sports’ commitments to broadcast select Women’s Super League matches led to a drastic increase in ease of access to women’s soccer in England.
The biggest surge in interest is likely to occur during the upcoming 2022/2023 season following England’s historic European Championship win in July. This talented English squad instilled a sense of pride in football fans nationwide. They made clear the importance of giving women the same opportunities to pursue the game as men and they proved the country is full of top-level talent that is thrilling to watch.
With many of England’s best players playing their club ball in the WSL as well as international superstars such as Australian captain (and arguably the best player in the women’s game right now) Sam Kerr, the WSL will be as exciting to follow as ever.
The 2022/2023 season kicks off on Sept. 10 and tickets are selling fast, so if you’re hoping to witness some of the year’s most captivating football matches in person, you’d be wise to purchase your tickets now.
