And the leagues around the world are only going to continue to get better, just like the NWSL.

So NWSL has to continue to find ways to improve itself and to not dilute the player pool or the organizations by adding

More organizations each and every year where the quality then is a little bit diluted and the parity is No longer good enough to have you know weekend and week out games that are very competitive So we're gonna start to see some change but then it's you know in three years what's gonna happen when she's 26 27 years old still

in the prime of her career and able to go overseas and play for a huge club and try to win a Champions League.

So we'll have to see.

But as of right now, it's a good thing that we have Trinity Rodman for three more years in the NWSL.

And it'll be exciting to be able to show some of our highlights here and talk about...

You know how brilliant she's going to be for Washington and then the national team leading into the World Cup.

Yeah.

It should be, right?

They've gotten so close two years in a row.

And I think that the third time could be a charm for the Washington spirit.

They certainly have the quality.

They have the star power.

They even have the depth, right?

We've seen that.

season where there were there been a handful of injuries or a player out on maternity leave and they were able to fill the shoes and and fill them pretty brilliantly throughout the season to be able to stay at the top of the table and compete for the championship.

So I'm looking forward to

continuing to watch Washington Spirit grow.

They now have another player joining the team from Paraguay, this young, talented 18-year-old who has a long career ahead of her, who's going to continue to, you know, fight for a position within the attacking six.
