Overview
- Each of the league’s 16 teams will be represented by up to two delegates, all existing club investors drawn from sports and entertainment.
- Notable members include Alex Morgan, Eli Manning, Magic Johnson, Sabrina Ionescu, Ken Griffey Jr., Sue Bird, Lindsey Vonn, Elizabeth Banks and Grant Hill.
- The advisory group’s remit includes brand and fan growth, content appearances, opening doors for sponsors and investors, and mentoring current players.
- The body will convene twice a year starting in 2026, and the league tapped Boardroom to help assemble an inaugural gathering in the spring of 2026.
- The board is advisory rather than governing, as the NWSL Board of Governors retains decision-making authority, with the initiative launched as valuations and viewership rise even as 2025 attendance dipped about 5%.
