The 9 reasons for a possible 7-12 teams Canadian women soccer league:

1- There are 3 MLS teams (Toronto FC, Vancouver Whitecaps, CF Montreal) with Academies of boys and girls where they have the resources and funds for women teams.

2- There’s a CPL club (FC Edmonton) with an academy for both boys and girls; they should be ready for the next step into women’s pro team or work out a partnership with St Albert Impact Women’s team!

3- A CPL club (Pacific FC) with a sister side (Vancouver Island FC) that has been competing in the WPSL in the past and is/should be ready for pro level.

4- There’s an international group with a CPL club (Atletico Madrid, Atletico San Luis & Atletico Ottawa) that are involved in women soccer (Atletico Madrid Femenino & Atletico San Luis Femenil) and can take their next step in Canadian Women Soccer

5- The best Canadian women soccer club so far (Calgary Foothills WFC) with very good successful track records in the UWS past seasons

6- The CPL team Valour FC is a community owned sport team, and can have a partnership with FC Manitoba who is ready to launch women’s team!
