As the team gears up for its inaugural season in 2026, anticipation is building, and the city’s soccer community is abuzz with excitement. With a strong ownership group and a dedicated fanbase, Denver’s NWSL team is poised to make a significant impact both on and off the field.
Denver sports fans have something new to celebrate as the city has been awarded a National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) franchise, set to debut in the 2026 season. This marks a significant milestone for women’s sports, with the expansion fee for the new team set at a record-breaking $110 million, more than double the previous highest fee for an NWSL club.
Denver has a strong history of producing top-notch women’s soccer talent, including current U.S. women’s national team players like Mallory Swanson, Lindsey Horan, and Sophia Smith. The addition of an NWSL team will undoubtedly inspire the next generation of soccer stars and provide a platform for showcasing their talents.
