That meant doing her due diligence on the player pool, giving opportunities for newer players to earn roster spots and challenging veterans to show they could continue to make an impact on the road to the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup in France. Since the end of the 2016 Olympics, Ellis has used 46 players in matches and has seen 61 different players in a WNT training camp environment. During her time at the helm, Ellis has given 28 players their first caps, 25 after the 2015 Women’s World Cup. The year after the end of a World Cup and Olympic cycle has traditionally seen a decrease in WOMEN’S NATIONAL TEAM NATIONAL WOMEN’S activity for the WNT, but that was not the case in 2017, which was truly a year of opportunity, learning and growth. The USA played seven of the other top nine teams in the world and hosted two major international tournaments: the SheBelieves Cup and the Tournament of Nations. The total of 16 matches was the most played in the year after a cycle since 1997, when the USA was gearing up to host the 1999 Women’s World Cup. In 2018, the group of players that emerged from the tests of 2017 put together a spectacular year on the field as the USA went unbeaten at 18-0-2. The USA won the SheBelieves Cup, U.S. SOCCER 2019 the Tournament of Nations and rolled through the Concacaf Women’s World Cup qualifying tournament, winning all five games by a 26-0 margin, to qualify for France. In 2019, the core group of players will focus on continuing to gel as some of the younger players continue to gain experience and improve the team’s depth, all with the goal of peaking this summer at the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup. Of course, many of the veterans who helped the USA to so much success over the past few years will be a major part of the team moving forward, but Ellis has made it clear that “if you are standing still, you are falling behind,” and will continue to evaluate players while focusing on developing relationships on the field as she and her staff work to formulate a best World Cup roster and starting XI for France. This much is clear: despite once again maintaining the top spot in the FIFA Women’s World Cup rankings for the entire year, the U.S. team is working hard to evolve and improve in the increasingly competitive arena of women’s international soccer. COUNTDOWN TO THE CUP The USA’s schedule in 2019 will be busy and challenging with U.S. Soccer announcing in December of 2018 the “Countdown to the Cup,” a 10-game tour leading into the Women’s World Cup that will take the USA to Europe for two games at the start of the year before staging eight domestic matches through all four times zones in the continental USA. Those games will give fans across the country a chance to cheer the team on to France while providing excellent tests during the final World Cup preparations. The annual January training camp will for the first time be staged in Europe, with the USA conducting a “pre-season” training camp in the familiar Algarve region on the southern coast of Portugal before traveling to face World Cup hosts France in Le Havre and then up-and- coming Spain in Alicante. In late February and early March, the USA will host the fourth annual SheBelieves Cup which features four of the top women’s National Teams in the world when England, Japan and Brazil play three doubleheaders across three venues. The U.S. players will then head to their pro clubs in the spring, but the USA will play five friendlies before departing U.S SOCCER 2019 PREVIEW 3 for France. In early April, the USA will take on Australia in Colorado and then face Belgium for U.S. WNT the first time in a game that will be staged in Los Angeles. In May, the USA will play its three- game “Send-Off Series,” taking on South Africa in Santa Clara, Calif., New Zealand in St. Louis and a final match against Mexico in Harrison, N.J. before the World Cup squad boards the plane to France. WNT HISTORY TALENT, DEPTH HIGHLIGHTS 2019 FOR USWNT While a solid core of veterans who played in the most recent Women’s World Cup and Olympics will lead the USA towards 2019, there have been some new faces in the U.S. team which have invigorated the roster and added valuable depth. Ellis and her staff are relishing the challenge of CUP HISTORY WORLD putting together the best team and lineup possible. As usual on the U.S. WNT, the selection of rosters for camps and games is a difficult proposition, but Ellis and her staff like it that way. It means the competition within the squad is increasing, and Ellis has stated that performance – not past accomplishments – will dictate who earns those coveted spots on the World Cup roster. At the end of 2014, the U.S. Women dropped from the top spot in the FIFA Women’s World Rankings, a position it had held for seven years, to second, but regained the #1 spot in July of 2015 and has kept it ever since, meaning the USA heads into the new year once again as the world’s top ranked team. Over the past 15 years, since the end of the 2003 FIFA Women’s PROGRAMS World Cup through the end of 2018, the U.S. team has lost just 17 matches in regulation. The American women will look to build on the tradition that has made the USA one of the most successful women’s soccer nations in history, winning four Olympic gold medals and three Women’s World Cup tournaments, as they focus on achieving success at the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup in France.

  • What Employers Should Consider About the Women Soccer Players' Wage Discrimination Claim
    04.07.16 What Employers Should Consider about the Women Soccer Players' Wage Discrimination Claim What would you say if you were paid less money for winning than someone else was paid just for showing up? Is that wage discrimination? Yes it is, according to the stars of U.S. Women's National Soccer Team. Last week, five stars of World Cup Champion women's team filed a wage discrimination claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) against U.S. Soccer. Hope Solo, Carli Lloyd, Becky Sauerbrunn, Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe claim that despite winning more, they are paid less than the men. According to the complaint: − The women's yearly salary is $72,000, compared to the men's yearly salary of $100,000 − The women are paid less for winning exhibition games than men get for simply showing up. The base pay for women to play in exhibition games is $3,600 and they get a bonus of $1,350 if they win; compared to the men who get paid a base of $5,000, with a bonus of $8,166 if they win; − The women receive a lower per diem rate for daily travel expenses. The women receive $50 per day for domestic travel and $60 per day for international travel, whereas the men receive $62.50 and $75.00 respectively; and − "The pay structure for advancement through the rounds of World Cup was so skewed that, in 2015, the men earned $9 million for losing in the round of 16, while the women earned only $2 million for winning the entire tournament.

  • The USWNT Return to Camp
    The USWNT Return to Camp Just last month the United States Women’s National Soccer Team held a ten-day-long training camp in Denver, Colorado. This was the first time the entire team had been together since the She Believes Cup in March of 2020. The new player roster consisted of 27 players, many being younger and newer faces. Coach Vlatko Andovoski said, “Getting the National Team back together brings us relief and excitement, and I’m thankful for all the work done behind the scenes to make this happen” Even with notable players like Rose Lavelle, Sam Mewis, Christen Press, and Tobin Heath not available for the camp as they were playing overseas in Europe’s Women League there was still buzz around the camp. Rose and Sam are both signed on for short- term contracts with Manchester City while Tobin and Christen are signed with Manchester United. Also missing from the usual list of call-ups were Carli Lloyd and Mallory Pugh, who are both currently undergoing recovery from injuries they sustained earlier this year. Megan Rapinoe, a very well known face and name for the team, opted out of the camp due to COVID concerns. Alex Morgan was also missing because of playing overseas and the birth of her daughter only six months ago. The camp focused on getting to know the new faces and getting back into the swing of team training; therefore, there were no international games during this camp. The roster created for the camp consisted of four goalkeepers, ten defenders, seven midfielders, and six forwards.
