This new partnership is a key step in increasing the value add of our league and we are excited to work alongside IMG ARENA as we continue enhancing the fan experience for NWSL fans and sports enthusiasts alike.”
Andrew Turner, Commercial Partnerships Manager – Americas, IMG ARENA, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with the world’s premier women’s soccer league to help grow the NWSL’s global reach and engage fans with a front-row seat to every moment of the action.
