When Feb opens, so too do camps, after the Cup, their 10 teams will kick off the regular season. Two dozen games from May 15, no break for the Olympics ending the day before Halloween. Playoffs, set to begin Nov. 6, as half a dozen teams make it, the top pair getting a bye. On, oh look my birthday Nov. 20 the title match is to be contested.

As they close out #9 and hit double digits in seasons, a first by far for a WOSO league here, the Draft will take place with new comers Angel City FC & Sacramento.

The aforementioned NWSL Medical Task Force is tasked with linking with public health officials in updating the leagues medical and testing protocols, being sure to get the safest environment for all to play in.
