MONTREAL — Cloé Lacasse wishes a professional women’s soccer league existed in Canada when she was younger.
The NSL will kick off a 25-game season in April 2025 with franchises in Ottawa, Montreal, Vancouver, Toronto, Halifax and Calgary — which unveiled its Calgary Wild FC team name and logo Thursday. The 30-year-old Lacasse, who finally broke into the Canadian women’s team in 2021, played professionally in Iceland and Portugal before her prolific goalscoring in those leagues helped her land in England’s FA Women’s Super League with Arsenal.
Even Canada’s players plying their trade in Europe and the U.S. see playing professionally at home as a possibility down the line. The league will also have an impact on the development of future talent for the national team, they say.
