OUR COMMUNITY
Designed by Daziah Green, our community art represents our commitment to unite and play against all forms of injustice in our society. Together we are changing the world.
Football is transcendent, but the true power of sport is how it unites us. Every week we empower women through football to lead communities and reach their dreams. We exist to bring hope and excitement to the next generation. In an effort to give back, we respond with everyday acts of volunteerism and philanthropy by owners, players, coaches, and club personnel. With the launch of our Community page, the WNFC is embracing our role as a unifier, addressing key social issues, and serving as a constant force for positive change. The league, our partners, and all 20 WNFC teams are committed to educating the WNFC community, instituting transparent league policies, and actively engaging and supporting to constructively impact society year-round.
