A fresh chapter begins for the USWNT. Having secured a historic Paris Olympics win, the American ladies are now shifting their focus to upcoming ventures. While the long-term goals include the 2027 World Cup and the 2028 LA Olympics,

A coach with a long history of stepping on eggshells is aiming at her biggest challenge yet. Can she upend old-minded traditions of how soccer coaches teach women and girls?

U.S. women's national team head coach Emma Hayes had only 75 days to build toward an Olympic gold medal. It would typically be considered an impossible task for some, but Hayes and the USWNT achieved what many thought they couldn't.

The U.S women’s national soccer roster for SheBelieves Cup is divided almost down the middle – an equal mix of vets and newcomers.

Naomi Girma's world-record move to Chelsea and Jenna Nighswonger's move to Arsenal alarmed some fans. But Hayes sees it as players doing what they want, and the SheBelieves Cup roster reflects that.

The SheBelieves Cup is a four-team, round-robin tournament that pits the USWNT against Australia, Colombia and Japan in a three-city tour. It begins on Feb. 20 at Shell Energy Stadium in Houston, moves to State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., on Feb. 23 and concludes three days later in San Diego.

Emma Hayes has said her aims for the United States women's national team (USWNT) go beyond just winning and spoke of wanting to build a program that "sets the bar for the global game."

Coach Emma Hayes had different levels to achieve when she joined the USWNT. The first milestone she could reach with the team was winning gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Now, it’s no surprise that the American ladies have shifted their focus to upcoming tournaments like the 2027 World Cup.
