    Does the NWSL know what soccer fans want?
    Apr 16 2025
    The NWSL is coveting new eyeballs and growth. But, after an announcement that the league would be establishing a "league supporter's group" as a sponsorship collaboration with an energy drink named Unwell, many are wondering if the NWSL actually understands soccer fans. This week, Full Time hosts Tamerra Griffin and Meg Linehan discuss tension in the relationship between the league and its supporters. With the help of voices from four different NWSL supporter's groups from across the country, Tamerra and Meg unpack what values are most important to key community stakeholders and where the NWSL might well be falling short. _______________ Articles mentioned on the show: Full Time Newsletter: Feeling ‘Unwell’ about a brand activation Fan who used hateful language toward Barba Banda banned by Gotham FC NWSL missed a chance to help Barbra Banda amid bad-faith attacks.
