First off, THANK YOU all for your support. 50 episodes is a major milestone and we thank all of you!
In the past, when we talked with Claire Winter in episode 22, we talked about the NWSL (National Women's Soccer League). We did not dive much into the league because Claire's journey did not include a stint in the NWSL. However, since then, we have been hoping to get to talk with someone in the league; today is the day. For this episode we were joined with head coach of the Washington Spirt, Richie Burke. The Washington Spirt are one of the teams in the NWSL. In the interview we discuss a few key things like, what is the effect of having two different teams in market that play the same sport? Does it split the market share? Does it develop a sense of partnership? Where does the NWSL rank in the rest of the world? What are the expansion plans of the NWSL? What was the effect of past attempts at professional women's soccer in the US? Pay issue, is there really an issue? Why do the athletes need more? All of these questions and more in this special episode of The Globally Ballin Podcast!
