The WUSA is the world's premier women's professional soccer
league. In the 2001 inaugural season, the eight-team league
featured the best players from the 1999 U.S. World Cup
Championship Team and top-flight international players.
Their victory
in 1999, helped boost women's soccer in the U.S. and around
the world as well as increase the WUSA's popularity through
the 2003 FIFA World Cup, where the U.S. Women's National
team finished second to Germany who took the first place
victory. Over 40 U.S. and international WUSA players
participated in this event.

Unfortunately, the financial
backing did not continue to support the League after the
WUSA's third season and the announcement was made on
September 15, 2003 that the League was suspending its
operations immediately. A group of former League officers
joined with the Player's Association to revive the WUSA in
2004 and beyond. |
