2026 NWSL Season Preview

NWSL 2026 Kickoff

We’re officially back for the 2026 season, and this episode is our big league-wide reset before we go full Angel City next week. We get into the Trinity Rodman re-signing and the messy new “high impact player” rule, then run through the key dates you need for the season and a break down how to actually watch games with this year’s streaming and TV situation. After that, we do a (semi)quick whip-around of the NWSL offseason. Who leveled up, who took a hit, and which teams (including the new clubs) might cause chaos.
