Today @usmlr announced that @DallasJackals will not be participating in the 2025 season. We are now in discussions with the league to ensure that players’ voices are heard for making the dispersal process equitable.

Congrats to @meghannburke, @torihuster, all the NWSLPA player reps, & @nwsl_players for collectively bargaining this historic agreement! . This innovative and progressive CBA will change the trajectory for all professional sports in the US! #WeSaidNow .

The NWSLPA is the Voice of the Players. We are an official labor union, advocating for the Players. Learn about how we operate and how you can support us.
Some said a CBA like this would never happen. #WeSaidNow. The Players just secured freedom over their careers and made history as the first American major pro sport to eliminate the draft. Player freedom secured. Read more about our new CBA via link in bio. #wesaidnow
