A women's professional soccer team is finally coming to the Bay Area. Joining a region of champions and world-class professional sports teams, the National Women's Soccer League's 14th franchise looks to add to the Bay's winning ways.
"To have us four with our soccer DNA and IQ, and teaming up with Sixth Street, we feel that we are going to be game changers," Osborne said.
"We want to create something that really is a beacon in the Bay Area that sets a new standard in terms of how people see the game, how they experience the game and something that really unites the over 101 different communities that we have," Wagner said."Now people can put on their iPhone or iPad and they can basically watch the NWSL like my daughter does, like a lot of the girls on her team do. That didn't exist five years ago, didn't exist 50 years ago.
The Founding Four says they're ready for their team to be that inspiration in the Bay Area and beyond, on and off the field.
