The National Women’s Soccer League Players Association releases statement on medical emergency at last night's game

AFL-CIO President @lizshuler.bsky.social: “Working people will stand up every single day and protect our brothers and sisters… we will all stand up for each other and we deserve to live with dignity.”

If you wake up each morning thinking about how to survive in this economy, America’s unions are fighting for you, every single day.

“The reality is.. players need a rest.” Meghann Burke highlights the need for recovery time as players return from international duty - calling for thoughtful team-led approaches to protect player health. www.nytimes.com/athletic/652...

The NWSLPA stands with Jess Carter. There is no place for racist abuse in our sport. Read our Full Statement :

This week in Switzerland, Meghann Burke represented the NWSLPA at global forums hosted by the ILO, FIFPRO, and the World Players Association —pushing the future of women’s sport toward dignity, equity, and player power

Labor love runs in the family. Our Executive Director, Meghann Burke, and her brother helped kick off the “It’s Better in a Union” bus tour today at the AFL-CIO Executive Council meeting in D.C.—because union pride runs deep in the family. Solidarity is on the move!

This July 4th, we’re celebrating the communities we build, the people we stand with, and the solidarity that carries us forward. There’s nothing more American than showing up for each other and fighting for a future where everyone belongs.

I'm super stoked about @nwslplayers.bsky.social's new deal with MatchWorn Shirts. The first auction for game-worn jerseys autographed by our members closes tomorrow. Check it out here: www.matchwornshirt.com/category/nws...

🚨The 2026 Free Agency Window is officially open. Thanks to the current CBA, every NWSL player becomes a free agent at the end of their contract—no more thresholds, no more waiting. This is the freedom players fought for: real mobility and a window aligned with the global game.

It’s the Mid-Season Break—a hard-fought CBA victory by players. No training. Just rest. Here’s how some of your favorite players are caring for their mental health along the way.

Know her Name : This Juneteenth, we honor Dr. Opal Lee, the Grandmother of Juneteenth—an educator, activist, and force of nature. Read more below ⬇️

Michele Vasconcelos left the Utah Royals to join Levante Badalona of Spain’s Liga F. Players have not been paid for the month of May, and the club was 5 days late in other payments. While the NWSL has made progress, “it was the result of players uniting, speaking out, and demanding better.”

We stand in solidarity with you all ✊

“When the league centers players - which are the greatest assets in the NWSL ecosystem - our collective potential is unlocked.” - @meghannburke.bsky.social NWSLPA, Executive Director.

“I’ve searched high and low, I’ve asked every single one of my colleagues in this space, ‘Are you aware of a single transgender woman who is trying to play soccer in the NWSL?’ And the answer is,’No.” @meghannburke.bsky.social NWSLPA, Executive Director.

“Women’s sports as a concept, as a category itself, are as born out of exclusion.” - @meghannburke.bsky.social NWSLPA, Executive Director.

This $5 million Players’ Restitution Fund can never undo the harm that has been caused, but it’s a step towards accountability and justice. This is how you protect women in sports.
